Move on Up a Little Higher Songtext
von The Dixie Hummingbirds

Oh, just as soon as my feet strikes I am dead
Oh yeah! Amen

Try on my robin glory, yeah
Then I′m gonna shout, shout, shout
Shout, shout and tell a story
Then I'm gonna move on
Up a little higher
I′m gonna meet with old man
Daniel I'm gonna move on up a little higher

I'm gonna meet with
Hebrew children
I′m gonna move on
Up a little higher
I′m gonna meet with old
Fallen sides
And then I'm gonna live on up and on and on


Yeah!
Oh!, oh I′m gonna live on up
Yeah!
Oh, children, when I get to heaven
I'm gonna stand and tell
The tree-tall angel gonna tone the bells
Gonna talk to the fathom
Chat with the sun, and talk about
The world where I come from
Gonna look up from deep in

The heat of the day, tune up my harp
And begin to play
Gonna step right on, put on my shoes
Walk around in glory, and throw
The good new′s

Cause the book of Revelation tells of me
And behold, I see one coming
Oh, he, riding, riding a white horse
And he who was on the horse named after time
Oh, time, I'm talking about the time
Time has been, won′t be no more

Jesus got his arms all wrapped around me
The devil in hell can't never harm me
Gonna live
I'm gonna live on up in glory
I′m gonna live on up in glory
After a while
