Lyrics
Hush now child and don't you cry
Your folks might understand you by and by
Just move on up towards your destination
Though you may find from time to time complications
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 supreme best
Do not obey rumors people say 'cause 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
Writer(s): Curtis Mayfield
