[Verse 1] When the wind on the mountain's blowing strong
Best not to tarry too long
Keep on moving
When the valley gets a little too dark at night
River is threatening to rise
Keep on moving
When you feel your heart burning up
The smoke gets in your eyes
When Mother Nature and Father Time are singing all the signs
Keep on moving

[Chorus] Oh-oh, won't you lighten my load?
Oh, life is a long road
Just keep on moving (Keep on moving)
Keep on moving (Keep on moving)

[Verse 2] There'll be times when you're up and your heart can shout
Times when you're full of doubt
But keep on moving
There'll be times when you're stuck and holding still
Times you just find the will
To keep on moving, mmm-mmm-mmm
The hardest part is letting go
Saying, “Babe, I wish you well”
When the ones you love don't love themselves
You still gotta love yourself
And keep on moving (Keep on moving)

[Instrumental Break] [Bridge] Mmm-mmm
Mmm

[Chorus] Oh-oh, won't you lighten my load?
Oh, I know life's a long road
Oh-oh, won't you lighten my load?
Lord, you know it's a long road
Gotta keep on moving (Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving)

[Outro] Keep on moving (Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving)
Yeah, keep on moving (Ooh)
(Keep on moving)
Gotta keep on moving (Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving)
Keep on moving (Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving) Yeah (Yeah)
Mmm
(Keep on moving)
Yeah, that's when you feel and know
Keep on moving
(Keep on moving) Mmm
Ooh-ooh (Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving)
Yeah, keep on moving (Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving)
Just keep on moving
(Keep on moving)
Feel it in your soul
(Keep on moving)
Just keep on, keep on, keep on moving
(Keep on moving) Mmm
(Keep on moving)
(Keep on moving)
