Porter Wagoner - Better Move It On Home lyrics

BETTER MOVE IT ON HOME

WITH DOLLY PARTON

Writer Ray Griff

I've been sittin' here looking at the clock big daddy

allready you're a half hour late.

I've been pulling back the curtains, peeping out the window

wish you wouldn't make me wait

You better move it on home, boy, you better move it on home.

I've been sittin' here listening to the jukebox playing

and forgettin' where I ought to be.

Zipping on a cool one having me some good fun

Time got away from me.

I better move it on home, I better move it on home.

[CHORUS:]

Better spin them wheels and make it on back

to heaven on earth and lovers' at

like a rolling stone, you better move it on home.

[SOLO]

(bridge)

I've been here cooking you a nice hot supper

and you can't even eat it on time

heating up the meat loaf and stiring up the gravy

is kind a messing up my mind

You better move it on home boy, you better move it on home.

I've been speeding through the traffic, passing everyone

I remember what I forgot.

Stepping on the gas and driving kind of fast

hoping I wont get stopped.

Better move it on home, better move it on home.

[CHORUS:]

(2x)

[SPOKEN:]

She: Better move it on home, boy right on this time or I'm gonna shake it.

He: I'm on my way babe, but the traffic is murder

She: That's what I thought the trouble is at home, if you're not at home soon.

He: Traffic is messing up my mind

She: ... and you're messing up mine.
