Who sing this song!!?? "Move On Up!" its an oldie ok...
It has a guy sining in falcetto sayin "Move on up!!" followed by some jazzy fast paced funk and it was jammin! and he kept saying the same thing. I heard it in Mpmphis last weeken on a soul oldies station. Oh, and on this radio station it had court snippets of different African American cases before a song would come on, funny & weird.

Move On Up
by Curtis Mayfield Hush now child, and don't you cry Your folks might understand you by and by Move on up towards your destination You may find from time to time Complications Bight your lip and take a trip Though there may be wet road ahead You cannot slip So move on up and 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 Just move on up and keep on wishing Remember your dreams are your only schemes So keep on pushing Take nothing less - not even second best And do not obey - you must have your say You can past the test Move on up! Here I am, you lucky people!
