Move On Up Lyrics - Curtis - 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
