The Rise And Dear Demise Of The Funky Nomadic Tribes lyrics

Out of sight, do it

The people rose and set off for the sun

At night they read their star signs

A people proud for they know their kingdom come

Their skin was tanned by moonshine

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

I know now why they gone and it's all past

There come a European

His love was good but his lust, it lingered last

And stuck like a devil demon

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

On lonely nights you can hear the distant call

And good hearts hear the rhythm

And now I know pride before a fall

On the road to freedom

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

Got to keep-a-movin'

Got to keep-a-movin' on

Woh, woh, woh, woh, now

I'm an insider, baby (or "Human inside, baby"?)

So long, baby

Goodbye
