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
