Hush now child, and don't you cry
Your folks might understand you, by and by
Just move on up, toward your destination
You may find from time to time
Complication

Bite your lip, and take a trip
Though there may be wet road ahead
And you cannot slip
Just move on up for 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
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
And you can pass 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

Ooh
Just move on up
Come on and move on up
Move on up
Move on up
Move on up
Move on up
Put your mind to it (Move on up)
You can do it, you can do it, you can do it (Move on up)
Yeah, ooh (Move on up)
Move on up
Move on up
Put your mind to it (Move on up)
Ooh (Move on up)
You know there, you know there's only one kind
There's only one kind, only one kind (Move on up)

Move on up
Move on
Move on
Move on 
Move on (Move on up)
