Move On Up Composer(s): Curtis Mayfield Originally performed by: Curtis Mayfield Covered by various other artists
Hush now child and don't 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 So move on up and 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 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
Move on up!
