Move on Up-Curtis Mayfield

Hush now child
And don't you cry
Your folks might understand you
By and by
Move on up
Toward your destination
You may find from time to time
Complication
Bight your lip
And take a trip
Though there may be wet road ahead
And you cannot slip
So move on up for peace 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 second best
Do not obey
You must keep your say
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
Just move on up
Move on up
But move on up
Oh child
But just move on up
But move on up
Move on up
