  C majorC            FF        C majorC
How can you keep on moving unless you migrate too
   C majorC               D MajorD           G7G7
 They tell ya to keep on moving but migrate, you must not do
   C majorC               FF      C majorC
 The only reason for moving and the reason why I roam
  C majorC        G+G            C majorC
 To move to a new location and find myself a home

 C majorC          FF               C majorC
I can't go back to the homestead, the shack no longer stands
          D MajorD             G7G7
 They said I was uneeded, had no claim to the land
   C majorC          FF                C majorC
 They said, "Come on, get moving, it's the only thing for you"
   C majorC        G+G             C majorC
 But how can you keep moving unless you migrate too

 Slide guitar solo

Now if you pitch your little tent along the broad highway
   C majorC             D MajorD        D MajorD
 The Board of Sanitation says, "Sorry, you can't stay"
   C majorC        FF               C majorC
 Come on, come on, get moving it's their everlasting cry
    C majorC             G+G               C majorC
 Can't stay, can't go back, can't migrate, so where the hell am I

  C majorC            FF        C majorC
How can you keep on moving unless you migrate too
   C majorC               D MajorD           G7G7
 They tell ya to keep on moving but migrate, you must not do
   C majorC        FF              C majorC
 The only reason for moving and the reason why I roam
  C majorC        G+G            C majorC
 To move to a new location and find myself a home
