Move
Luke Bryan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Packed a U-Haul cross a one-tree yard to a tin roof shotgun house
You didn't know nobody, didn't talk too much
Had a rocking little body with a yankee strut
A little shy side, a little wild side
With your long blonde hair all pulled up
Then you got in with some southern belles
Cut your jeans off with a rebel yell
Now, girl, I melt when you
M-O-V-E, I love it yeah, I love it when you get that deed
Boots on, stomp your feet
It's like you've been waiting on me to
Move like you do
All sexy and smooth
Like you love to
Oh, girl, look at you
Legs and your hips
Live old Moonlyn
When that song hits
Damn, you turnin' loose
Stars of the southern sky
Buzz of the fire and ice
DJ plays that throwback tune
But I can't move when you move
It's like there's something in the air
That turns you wild when a country song
Is way up loud and the sun goes down
Right about then, you lock eyes on me
You got me where you want me, where I wanna be
All up in the middle of your left and right
Just side to side, yeah, you're right on time when you
M-O-V-E, I love it yeah, I love it when you get that deed
Boots on, stomp your feet
It's like you've been waiting on me to
Move like you do
All sexy and smooth
Like you love to
Oh, girl, look at you
Legs and your hips
Live old Moonlyn
When that song hits
Damn, you turnin' loose
Stars of the southern sky
Buzz of the fire and ice
DJ plays that throwback tune
But I can't move when you move
Let me talk to you
M-O-V-E
I love it when you, love it when you feel the beat
C-O-M-E
Come on, I wanna see you
Move like you do
sexy and smooth
Like you love to
girl, look at you
Legs and your hips
Live old Moonlyn
When that song hits
Damn, you turnin' loose
Stars of the southern sky
Buzz of the fire and ice
DJ playin' throwback tune
I wanna move when you
But I can't move when you
No I can't move when you move
No I can't move when you move
Luke Bryan's song "Move" is about a girl who moves from the north to the south and adopts the southern lifestyle. When she dances, she exudes a sexy and smooth confidence that leaves Luke Bryan mesmerized. The opening lyrics describe how this girl's mother moved them from the north to live in a "tin roof shotgun house" in the south. At first, she didn't know anyone and was shy, but she quickly learned the ways of the southern belle, cutting off her jeans and learning the "talk of the Bible Belt." Despite being both shy and wild, she has a powerful presence that captures Luke Bryan's attention.
The chorus of the song is all about how Luke Bryan loves to watch this girl move as she dances. Her sexy and smooth motions captivate him, and he loves seeing her stomp her boots on the ground. He sings about the energy in the air when the southern stars are shining bright, and a country song is playing loud. When her gaze locks on him, he knows he's exactly where he wants to be.
The final verse of the song is a call to action; Luke Bryan invites the girl to dance with him and show off her rockinβ moves. He loves feeling the beat of the music with her, and he can't help but want to move alongside her. However, when sheβs on the dance floor, he's usually too entranced by her moves to join in.
