AS LONG AS I'M MOVING (Charles Calhoun) RUTH BROWN (Atlantic 1059, 1955) You're crazy 'bout lovin', I'm crazy 'bout love myself You're crazy 'bout lovin', I'm crazy 'bout love myself When I'm with you baby, can't think about nothin' else I've seen so many men, it's like looking through a fine tooth comb I've seen so many men, it's like looking through a fine tooth comb But these young cats 'll make a good girl lose her home [Chorus] I wanna go north, east, south, west Every which way, as long as I'm movin' Long as I'm movin', long as I'm movin' Long as I'm movin', long as I'm movin' baby, I don't care You got big broad shoulders, build like a trailer truck You got big broad shoulders, build like a trailer truck Let me run with you daddy and maybe I'll change my luck I gotta watch myself, these boys are gettin' out of hand I gotta watch myself, these boys are gettin' out of hand They get twelve years old, start acting like a natural man [Chorus] I wanna go north, east, south, west Every which way, as long as I'm movin' Long as I'm movin', long as I'm movin' Long as I'm movin', long as I'm movin' baby, I don't care Move, move, move, move! Well it must be rat, because mink don't feel that way Well it must be rat, because mink don't feel that way Well don't you talk that talk, don't believe a thing you say [Chorus] I wanna go north, east, south, west Every which way, as long as I'm movin' Long as I'm movin', long as I'm movin' Long as I'm movin', long as I'm movin' baby...
