Move on Up

Hush now child, and don't you cry

Your folks might understand you, by and by

Just move on up

Towards your destination

You may find, from time to time, complications

Bite your lip, oh child, just take a trip

Though there may be a wet road ahead

You cannot slip, now

Just move on up

And keep on pushing

Just a little faith, you can put your mind to it

You can surely do itHush now child, and don't you cry

Your folks might understand you, by and by

Just move on upMove on up!
