The Shadowboxers - On the Move lyrics

[Verse 1] Johnny was a slow mover Took him time to come around But when he did he was hot on the trail Of the thing that moved him so He made all his money In Nashville, Tennessee Where he'd hang his hat till the day he died Cause he loves the life he leads [Chorus] He's on the move Lie-da-die… He's on the move Lie-da-die… [Verse 2] And he kept close his information And he seldom paid it company Though his nine to five only magnified All his careful tendencies And it's true he knew a lot of women And he called them up from time to time But the picture frame at the foot of his bed Never saw his guard unwind [Chorus] [Verse 3] Now one day he met a lady On West End Avenue She asked his name with a smile and a gaze That broke him into two She asked him if he was hungry And he tried to keep his cool Though he took his time with his food and wine He was feeling something new [Chorus] [Verse 4] They made love till the morning When she said she had to leave She hopped on a plane to Santa Fe And he questioned his philosophy Now Johnny was a slow mover But when he did come around He left behind his careful mind For the girl who moved him so [Chorus] x 2 Lie-da-die… Lie-da-die… Whoa, oh lie-da-die… Whoa, whoa, whoa Whoa, oh lie-da-die… Whoa, whoa, whoa
