The Fast Moving Blues

          words and music by Bob MacKenzie

I got the fast movin' blues
I don't know what to do
I got the fast movin' blues
I don't know what to do
I'm movin' to the mountains
'Cause my baby was untrue

Well the last time I saw her
She said that we were done
Well the last time I saw her
She said that we were done
So I shot my cheatin' woman
With a 45 calibre gun

Well I guess I showed my baby
Not to cheat on me
Well I guess I showed my baby
Not to cheat on me
Love is meant for pairs
And three's not company

Now I'm headin' for the mountains
Movin' as fast as I can
Now I'm headin' for the mountains
Movin' as fast as I can
'Cause I shot my cheatin' woman
Bein' chased by the fast lawman

I got the fast movin' blues
I don't know what to do
I got the fast movin' blues
I don't know what to do
I'm movin' to the mountains
'Cause my baby was untrue
