Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You gotta move
You gotta move
You gotta move, child
You gotta move
But when the Lord
Get ready
You gotta move
[Verse 2]
You may be high
You may be low
You may be rich, child
You may be poor
But when the Lord
Get's ready
You gotta move
[Verse 3]
You see that woman
That walks the street
You see that policeman
Out on his beat
But when the Lord
Get ready
You gotta move
[Verse 4]
You gotta move
You gotta move
You gotta move, child
You go to
But when the Lord
Get ready
You gotta move
