Lyrics Move on Up - 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 the supreme best
Do not obey rumors people say 'cause you can past the test

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