Revision as of 15:42, 15 August 2013
| Music by | Kenny Ascher and Paul Williams |
| Date | 1979 |
| Source | The Muppet Movie |
| Publisher | Fuzzy Muppet Songs |
"Movin' Right Along" is sung in The Muppet Movie by Kermit the Frog and Fozzie Bear as they set out together in Fozzie's Studebaker for California. The song is generally upbeat and has a number of comical lines reflecting the passing scenery, such as Fozzie singing "Hey, I've never seen the sun come up in the west?" Kermit and Paul Williams sang the song together on The Muppet Show Live.
There is a very brief lyric from the song that is missing in the movie, but it has been heard in audio form.
