Curtis Mayfield - Move On Up

Hush now, child And don't cry Your folks might understand you By and by

Just move on up Toward your destination Though you may find From time to time, complication

Bite your lip And take the 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 pushin'

Take nothing less Than the supreme best Do not obey rumors, people say So you can pass 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
