Move Songtext
von The Manhattan Transfer

Nothing′s lacking motion
Not the heavens or the ocean
Or the planets or the weather
All are moving all together
On the move
Let's go - let′s go
Let's get t'movin′ it
Let′s go - Let's get t′groovin' it
Why′re y'hesitating
Can′t you feel the rhythm waitin'
Strike a groove, let's move
Get it on!
That′s right! That′s right!
Don't ever have t′fight
That's right
Don′t hold y'self so tight
Give it a solid minute
And you′ll find you've fallen in it
What's to prove?
Just move - get it on


Move it any way you want to move
As long as you can fin′ a groove
That′s cool, that'll do
Move fast or move it slow
Same any way you go
Let′s go - let's go
Let′s get t'movin′ it
Let's go - Let's get t′groovin′ it
Why're y′hesitating
Can't you feel the rhythm waitin′
Strike a groove, let's move
Get it on!
I′m movin' I'm movin′
I′m taking it on out
Gotta bottle up 'n git it
Listen to me - dig
Time never hesitates,
It′s always just a little bossy
Everybody knows a rolling stone
Is never really very mossy
Y'never want to hesitate
Y′feet'll take y′with 'em
'Cause when y′moving
You ain′t got the time
F'nothing else
But paying strict attention
To the music and the fascinatin′ rhythm
So I'm tellin′ y'man
To move it right along
′N' hurry up and sing your little song
'N′ while you′re moving madly
You can sing yourself a happy
Little ditty while you groove
And then you never have to worry
'Bout striking a good groove
I was diggin′ whatcha talkin' ′bout
And listenin' to the groovy way
You spit it out
And baby that was really somethin′ to hear
Glad I lent my ear
Funny, when you're movin' and you′re groovin′
How you haven't got a second
F′ a little light revivin'
′Cause you go too fast
Time passes, this groove's too good to last
When you′re talking fas' y'lyin′
′N' there ain′t nobody buyin'
That′s the sayin'
Everybody′s layin' down
But you got a way
Playing what you play
Saying what you say
Turnin' everything ′round
Everybody′s gotta dig it
If they don't they′re deaf
I can testify that you were really gittin' in it
Much as any person ever could
′N' you really did it good
Come and face the facts
Come show the people how you move it on the sax
Rich, you move in style!
Make all the moves, find all the strangest grooves
Man, what a tone!
Come play the saxophone
Come show the people how you move it on the horn

Let′s git movin' it
Git to groovin' it
Better get to movin′ while the gittin′ is good
(Let's go - let′s go)
Why're y′hesitating
Can't you feel the rhythm waiting
Strike a groove,
Let′s move git it on
That's right - that's right
Never have to fight
How you gonna move it
Why you hold yourself tight?
(Let′s go - let′s go)
Give it a solid minute
And you'll find you′ve fallen in it
Just move git it on
Move it any way you want to move
As long as you can strike a groove
That's cool that′ll do
Move fast or move it slow
Same any way you go
Let's get movin′ it
Get to groovin' it
Better get movin' while the gettin′ is good
(Let′s go - let's go)
Why′re y'hesitating
Can′t you feel the rhythm waiting
Strike a groove,
Let's move get it on
Strike that groove
′N' move
'N′ don′t be hesitatin'
One lil′ bit
Got t'hip y′ that's it
So now will y′move?
Gotta move - gotta move
