Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Hush now child

And don't you cry

Your folks might understand you

By and by

[Chorus]

Just move on up

Toward your destination

Though you may find from time to time

Complication

[Verse 2]

Bite your lip

And take a trip

Though there may be wet road ahead

And you cannot slip

[Chorus]

Just move on up

For peace you will find

Into the steeple of beautiful people

Where there's only one kind

[Verse 3]

So hush now child

And don't you cry

Your folks might understand you

By and by

[Chorus]

Move on up

And keep on wishing

Remember your dream is your only scheme

So keep on pushing

[Verse 4]

Take nothing less

Than the second best

Do not obey rumors people say

For you can pass the test

[Chorus]

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
