The Manhattan Transfer
Lyrics for Song: Move
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - The Manhattan Transfer
Move, c'mon -- move
Nothing's lacking motion
Not the heavens or the ocean
Or the planets or the weather
All are moving all together
On the move
Let's go - let's go
Let's get t'movin' it
Let's go - Let's get t'groovin' it
Why're y'hesitating
Can't you feel the rhythm waitin'
Strike a groove, let's move
Git it on!
That's right! That's right!
Don't ever have t'fight
That's right
Don't hold y'self so tight
Give it a solid minute
And you'll find you've fallen in it
What's to prove?
Just move - git it on
Move it any way you want to move
As long as you can fin' a groove
that's cool, that'll do
Move fast or move it slow
Same any way you go
(Repeat Chorus)
Background
Make a motion - move!
Strike a groove
make an effort - swing!
Shake that thing
Make a motion
Move-groove
I'm movin' I'm movin'
I'm taking it on out
Gotta bottle up 'n git it
Listen to me - dig
Time never hesitates,
It's always just a little bossy
Everybody knows a rolling stone
Is never really very mossy
Y' never wanna hesitate
Y' feet'll take y'with 'em
'Cause when y'moving
You ain't got the time
F'nothing else
But paying strict attention
To the music and the fascinatin' rhythm
So I'm tellin' y'man
To move it right along
'N hurry up and sing your little song
'N while you're moving madly
You can sing yourself a happy
Little ditty while you groove
And then you never have to worry
'Bout striking a good groove
I was diggin' whatcha talkin' 'bout
And listenin' to the groovy way
You spit it out
And baby that was really somethin' to hear
Funny, when you're movin' and you're groovin'
How you haven't got a second
F' a little light revivin'
'Cause you go too fast
Time passes, this groove's too good to last
When you're talking fas' y'lyin'
'N there ain't nobody buyin'
That's the sayin'
Everybody's layin' down
But you got a way
Playing what you play
Saying what you say
Turnin' everything 'round
Everybody's gotta dig it
If they don't they're deaf
I can testify that you were really gittin' in it
Much as any person ever could
'N y'really did it good
Come and face the facts
Come show the people how you move it on the sax
Rich, you move in style!
Make all the moves, find all the strangest grooves
Man , what a tone!
Come play the saxophone
Come show the people how you move it on the horn
Let's git movin' it
Git to groovin' it
Better get to movin' while the gittin' is good
Let's go - let's go
Let's move git it on
That's right - that's right
Never have t'fight
How you gonna move it
Let's go - let's go
Why are you hesitatin'?
Can't y'feel the rhythm waitin'?
Strike a groove
Let's move git it on
When y'hold yourself tight?
Let's go - let's go
Let's move git it on
Move it any way you wanna move
As long as you can strike a groove
That's cool that'll do
Move fast or move it slow
Same any way you go
Let's git movin' it
Get t'groovin' it
Better git movin' while the gittin' is good
Let's go - let's go
Give it a solid minute
And you'll find you've fallen in it
What's to prove?
Just move git it on
Strike that groove
'N move
'N don't be hesitatin'
One lil' bit
Got t'hip y' that's it
So now will y'move?
Background:
Let's go - let's go
Why are you hesitatin'?
Can't y'feel the rhythm waitin'?
Strike a groove
Let's move git it on
Gotta move - gotta move
