Well you know that it's time to move on, babe,
Winter is fast com'in on babe,
It's been snow'in all night,
The Black Hills are white
You know babe, it's time to move on.

All the dry days that turned into years, babe,
We watered the earth with our tears, babe,
Got no fruit from the trees,
No honey from the bees,
You know babe, it's time to move on.

The land is so empty and bare, babe,
Can't see nothing green anywhere, babe,
Just some flowers I saved
To lay on your grave,
You know babe, it's time to move on.

Only one thing, one thing I can give, babe,
Keep the promise I made you to live, babe,
So I'm go'in away,
I'll die if I stay,
And it's time babe, time to move on.

You know that it's time to move on, babe,
Winter is fast com'in on babe,
It's been snow'in all night,
The Black Hills are white
You know babe it's time, time to move on.
