Am
Born in the middle of the afternoon

In a horsedrawn carriage on the old A-5
The big twelve wheeler shook my bed

Born in the common by a building site

Where the ground was rutted by the trail of wheels
The local Christian said to me

Born at the back of a hawthorn hedge
D G Am
Where the black hole frost lay on the ground
No eastern kings came bearing gifts

Am G
Move along get along
Am G
Move along get along
F G Am

The eastern sky was full of stars
D G Am
And one shone brighter than the rest
The wise men came so stern and strict
D Am D Em
And brought the orders to evict

You'd better get born in some place else
Am G
Move along get along

Move along get along
F G Am
Go! Move! Shift

Wagon tent or trailer born
D G Am
Last month, last year or in far off days
Born here or a thousand miles away

There's always men nearby who'll say
Am G D Em
You'd better get born in some place else
