I was born by the river, just like this river
I've been moving ever since
Ain't got nobody to call my own
You know I've been moving since the day I was born
Life is a game just made for fun
You know I don't love nobody, I don't love no one

Yes, I'm a mover, baby

Following the footsteps, one fine day
When I asked the wise man which was the way
He said: "Follow your heart and look for yourself
And come back and tell me what you have learned"

Yes, I'm a mover, baby

Went back and told him, I told him, I found me a wife
Eleven children and a real good life
Told him of love and this happy home
But I need, need to return to that long, winding road

Yes, I'm a mover, baby
Oh, can't stand still
I gotta move on, now
Baby, ain't no one understands
