THE IMPRESSIONS
"I Gotta Keep On Moving"
(Mayfield)

Ba do, ba do do do do
Ba do do do do
Ba do do do do
Ba do do do do

Lord I got to keep on movin'
Lord I got to get on down
I say Lord I got to keep on movin'
'Cause Lord I can't be found
'Cause Lord their comin' after me

Listen to me
I've been accused for a killin'
Lord knows I didn't do
But hatin' me they are willin'
And that's a why (I got to get on) got to get on through
'Cause Lord their comin' after me

Yeah, I say Lord I got to keep on movin'
I say Lord I got to get on down
Lord I got to keep on movin', mm mm
'Cause Lord I can't be found
'Cause Lord their comin' after me

Now listen!
I've got two boys and a woman
Their gonna suffer now
Lord forgive me for not going back
But I'll be dead anyhow
I say I'll be dead anyhow

Yeah I say Lord I got to keep on movin'
Lord I got to get on down, mm mm
Lord I got to keep on movin' yeah yeah
'Cause Lord I can't be found
Because Lord their comin' after me

Now maybe someday I'll find a piece of land
Somewhere not botherin' anyone
Then I'll send for my love love sweet woman
And my two grown up sons
And my two grown up sons

One more time
I say Lord I got to keep on movin'
I say Lord I got to get on down
Lord I got to keep on movin' yeah yeah
'Cause Lord I can't be found
Because Lord their comin' after me

A one more time
Now Lord I got to keep on movin'
I say Lord I got to get on down
Lord I got to keep on movin', mm mm
Because Lord I can't be found
'Cause Lord their comin' after me
