Hush now child and don't you cry
|
Your folks might understand you by and by
|
So in the mean time, move on up towards your destination
|
Though you may find from time to time complications
|
|
Bite your lip and take a trip
|
Though there may be wet road ahead
|
And you cannot slip so what you wanna do
|
Just move on up for peace you will find
|
Into the steeple of beautiful people where there's only one kind
|
|
So hush now child and don't you cry
|
Your folks might understand you by and by
|
So what are we wanna do is move on up for a greater day
|
But just you gonna make it, you put your mind to it, you can surely do it
|
|
Take nothing less than the supreme best
|
Do not obey for most people say 'cause you can past the test
|
So what we have to do is move on up and keep on wishing
|
Remember your dream is your only scheme so keep on pushing
|
|
So hush now child and don't you cry
|
Your folks might understand you by and by
|
Move on up for a greater day but just you gonna make it
|
You put your mind to it, you can surely do it
|
Move on up, we can to move on up
|
Move on up, move on child I wanna move on up
|
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
We can to move on up, we can to move on up
|
