}}She's About a Mover is a 1965 song by the Sir Douglas Quintet.[3] and was quickly covered by several other artists. The song has a 12-bar blues structure, and is structured in a similar manner to The Beatles' "She's A Woman", Holland-Dozier-Holland's "Can I Get a Witness" and Ray Charles' "What'd I Say".[4]

This was one of the many hits recorded at a studio that was known in the 60's as Gold Star Studios (this was also a different studio from the other studio under the same name based in LA) that later became known as Sugar Hill Studios located in Houston Texas. Other hits recorded in this same studio included "Treat Her Right" by Roy Head & the Traits and "Funny" by Joe Hinton and "Turn On Your Love Light" by Bobby "Blue" Bland.

The song was named the number one 'Texas' song by Texas Monthly, also charting at #15 on the UK Singles Chart.[5] With a Vox Continental organ riff provided by Augie Meyers and a soulful vocal by lead singer-guitarist Doug Sahm, the track has a Tex-Mex sound. The regional smash became a breakaway hit, and the recording was used in the soundtracks of the films Echo Park (1986), American Boyfriends (1989), The Doors (1991), Riding in Cars with Boys (2001), Sorority Boys (2002), and Beautiful Darling (2010).[6]

In 1983, the song appeared on Ringo Starr's ninth album Old Wave.
