move on up [ (album version) by Curtis Mayfield]

Hush now child

And dont you cry

Your folks might understand you

By and by

Move on up

Towards your destination

You may find
From time to time

Complications

Bite your lip

And take a trip

Though there may be
Wet road ahead

You cannot slip

Just move on up

And peace you will find

Into the steeple

Of beautiful people

Where theres only one kind

So hush now child

And dont you cry

Your folks might understand you

By and by

Just move on up

And keep on wishing

Remember your dreams

Are your only schemes
So keep on pushing

Take nothing less
Not even second best

And do not obey
You must have your say
You can past the test

Just move on up

To a greater day

With just a little faith
You can get your mind to it
You can show how to do it

Just move on up

Move on up

Move on up

Just move on up

Move on up

Move on up
