Gonna Move

When I was a little boy, I felt so alone

Quiet country house that I had to call home

Living with a couple of folks, rich millionaires

Sat on their money; Lord, it seems they didn't care

Finally we moved to our own place

where I could walk around with a smile on my face,

and I knew in order to be a man

I had to pull up my roots and move on in this land

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

Came to a school in the big city

Looked around at the lights and I thought they were pretty

They told me and teached me to live by their rules

So I wouldn't be nobody's fool

I found out, not too long

Their rules wouldn't let me sing my song

I knew in order to be a man

I had to pull up my roots once again and move on in this land

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

Then I joined the college ranks

There they said they'd teach me how to think

They gave me books to read and papers to write

They didn't know about this boy's coming fight

But I found out after awhile

reading those books was making me lose my smile

I knew in order to not conceal

I had to play music and express what I feel

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you wanna go there
