Lyrics

You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
Oh, when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
Oh, when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
You may be right (You got to move)
You may be wrong (You got to move)
You may be living in the streets (You got to move)
Or you may be at home (You got to move)
But when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
Tell the gambler (You got to move)
Out in the street (You got to move)
Tell the police man (You got to move)
As he walks his beat (You got to move)
Tell 'em when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
Oh, when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
Tell the lawyer (You got to move)
To watch his list (You got to move)
Tell the grand jury (You got to move)
To notify the judge (You got to move)
Tell 'em when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
Tell the governor (You got to move)
To get ready too (You got to move)
Tell everybody (You got to move)
And the Internal Revenue (You got to move)
Tell 'em when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
Yeah, you got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
Oh, when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you got to move)
Oh yeah, you got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
You got to move (You got to move)
Tell 'em when the Lord gets ready (When the Lord gets ready)
You got to move (You got to move, you've got to)
You got to move (Move)
