Buried your mother and you turned 18
Can't stand still, gotta keep moving
Hometown shimmered like a worn out dream
Bought a pair of shoes and a pocket knife
You packed it up and hit the road
Seen Mojave and the Ponchartrain
Can't stand still, gotta keep moving
Slid through a Denver bend in the rain
Cried 'Hail Mary' and the road obliged
You settled down and fell asleep
Yeah you settled down and fell asleep
Danced your shadow in the possum moon
Can't stand still, gotta keep moving
Thought you would get to the bottom soon
Daylight clattered on the dark horizon
Everything was what it seemed
Full September on the Great Divide
Can't stand still, gotta keep moving
Didn't quite know what to do so you cried
Had a good lover in a nowhere town
But you couldn't stand another day
No you couldn't stand another day
Got no worries, got no dreams
Don't recall another way to be
Broke camp early and you felt brand new
Can't stand still, gotta keep moving
Found a little work on a warehouse crew
Couldn't say certain when the spring arrives
If you'll hang around or slip away
Yeah will you hang around or slip away
Yeah hang around or slip away
