Stick my thumb out, catch a ride
Maybe this time I'll be satisfied
Find a new town 'bout a mile
Maybe this time I will stay a while.

Then if no one wants
This restless heart of mine
Guess I'll move on down the line
Guess I'll move on down the line.

Been to Memphis and St Joe
But I won't be goin' there no more
Seen the bright lights and the shows
Seen the people in their fancy clothes.

But I can't get use the big city wine
Guess I'll move on down the line
Guess I'll move on down the line.

Tired of ridin' trucks and trains
Tired of hobo livin', aches and pains
Need a place to settle down
Need a place to put my feet on the ground.

But till I get to rest
This restless soul of mine
Guess I'll move on down the line
Guess I'll move on down the line.

Guess I'll move on down the line...
