Move On Up

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

Just 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



Just move on up!

To a greater day

With just a little faith

You can get your mind to it

You can show how to do it



Just move on up!

Move on up!
