Paul Pena - Gonna Move lyrics

rate me

When I was a little boy I felt so alone

Quiet country house that I had to call home

Living with a couple folks, rich millionaires

Sat on their money Lord it seemed 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 want to go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you want to go there

Came to a school in the big city

Looked around at the lights and I thought they were pretty

They told me to teach 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 roots once again and move on in this land

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you want to go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you want to go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you want to go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you want to go there

Then I joined the college ranks

There they said they'd teach me how to think

Gave me books to read and papers to write

They didn't know about this boy's come to fight

But I found out after awhile

Reading those books was making me loose 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 want to go there

I'm gonna move away from here

You can find me if you want to go there

Jump on a train, come on the train with me

Come and ride, you will see

Come on this train, success bound

We got to get the fee? and the? came around

We're gonna get there in a little while

Come on with me, depart in style

Roll on, roll on, roll on, roll on

Gonna move, gonna move on the train

If it ain't fast enough I'm gonna jump on a plane
