Lyrics:

You gotta move, you gotta move
You gotta move, child, you got to move
Yes, when the lord gets ready
You gotta move
You may be old, you may be young
You may be weak, you may be strong
But when the lord gets ready
You gotta move

You see that woman on down the street
You see that law enforcement officer walking his beat
But when the lord gets ready
They too gotta move
You gotta move, you gotta move
You gotta move, child, you gotta move
Yes, when the lord gets ready
You gotta move
