1: Well we're Movin' on Up!
C: Movin' on Up!
1: To the east side!
C: Movin' on Up!
1: To a dee-luxe apartment in the sky, We're movin' on up!
C: Movin' on Up!
1: To the east side!
C: Movin' on Up!
1&C: We've finally got a piece of the pie!
1: Fish don't fry in the kitchen,
Beans don't burn on the grill.
Took a whole lotta tryin'
Just to get up that hill.
1&2: Now we're up in the big leagues,
Gettin' our turn at bat!
As long as we live,
It's you and me, baby!
There ain't nothin' wrong with that!
1: Hooray, We're Movin' on Up!
C: Movin' on Up!
1: To the east side!
C: Movin' on Up!
1: To a dee-luxe apartment in the sky! We're Movin' on Up!
C: Movin' on Up!
1: To the east side!
C: Movin' on Up!
1&C: We've finally got a piece of the pie!
