lyrics

Shovelled coal in West Virginia mines
Cured tobacco down in Caroline
Logged a forest near the Puget Sound
I got drunk in every bar in town

Worked Alaska on that long pipeline
Covered Kansas on an old combine
But when I found the place that I love best
This man in motion finally came to rest

Chorus
I'm done movin'
Layin' roots down on this farm
Tell ya, I'm done movin'
I'm stayin' home here in our arms

Drove a big rig 'cross the Great Divide
I found out it was a lonesome ride
Climbed the Sierras with a screen and pan
Searched for gold; all I found was sand

Chorus

Been to Boulder and to Boston, too
Anywhere there was a job to do
But I promised on the day we wed
Threw out my knapsack and I bought a bed

Chorus
I'm done movin'
I'm stayin' on this land
Yeah, I'm done movin'
I'm gonna be her family man
My baby loves me where I am
My baby loves me where I am
