"I'm Moving On" is a 1950 country standard written by Hank Snow. The song, a 12-bar blues, reached #1 on the ''Billboard'' country singles chart and stayed there for 21 weeks, tying the record.〔Joel Whitburn, ''Joel Whitburn's Top Country Songs 1944 to 2005'', Record Research, 2005〕 It was the first of seven number-one ''Billboard'' country hits Snow scored throughout his career on that chart.〔 The song has four bars of verse followed by eight bars of chorus with the final lines referring back to the verse: :That big eight-wheeler rollin' down the track :Means your true-lovin' daddy ain't comin' back :I'm movin' on, I'll soon be gone :You were flyin' too high for my little old sky so I'm movin' on "I'm Moving On" is one of three songs in the history of the ''Billboard'' country charts to spend 21 weeks at #1, the others being 1947's "I'll Hold You in My Heart (Till I Can Hold You in My Arms)" by Eddy Arnold and 1955's "In the Jailhouse Now" by Webb Pierce. It spent 44 weeks in Billboard's top 10.〔 Until August 2013, the three songs jointly held the record for most weeks at No. 1 on the country chart, until being surpassed by "Cruise" by Florida Georgia Line, which logged its 22nd week atop the chart on August 10, 2013. ==Cover versions== While Hank Snow's version was still on the charts, hillbilly comedians Lonzo and Oscar released a parody version: :I let a man work on my car :Till he grabbed aholt of the sparkplug wire :He's movin' on, he'll soon be gone :He turned it loose when he felt the juice, he's moving on 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「I'm Moving On (Hank Snow song)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
