(Egan)
It?s a dead-end job and the money is low,
And the time goes by so slow.
If I stay too long it could bring me down,
So I might as well take another look around.
You say it?s a fool that keeps moving on,
Well, maybe you?re right, maybe you?re wrong.
You can keep on talking ?til the end of time,
But nothing?s gonna make me change my mind.
I pick up my money when the day is done,
I?m moving on, and I?ve got a good reason.
I hear you moan, but you?ve only got yourself to blame,
If I stayed in one position I would feel the same.
So I?ll just keep travelling on,
I?d rather go on living like a rolling stone.
You can keep on talking ?til the end of time,
But nothing?s gonna make me change my mind.
