Lyrics Move On Up (Extended Version) - Curtis Mayfield

Hush now child and don't you cry
Your folks might understand you by and by
Just 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
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
Move on up and keep on wishing
Remember your dream is your only scheme so keep on pushing

Take nothing less than for second best
And do not obey you must have your say
But you can past the test

Just move on up to a greater day
With just a little faith you can put your mind to it
You can surely do it

Just move on up, move on up
We'll move on up, whatcha just move on up
We'll move on up, move on up
