You may be black
you may be blue
You may be white
or have no clue

You may be right,
you may be left
You may have a flu
or singing covid blues

When the lord gets ready
You gotta move

When the lord gets ready
You gotta move

You maybe Elon Musk
or upside down Yogi Josh
You may be fully masked
or hang out with nudist class.
Or anti vax
Or full of needle tracks
Or high avoiding tax
Or eating beans and rice

When the lord gets ready
You gotta move

You may be Buddhist monk
Or hiding cash in your trunk
Or always dancing funk
Or whirling dervish drunk

Or a computer geek
or a culty spiritual freak
Or may dig your Cowboy hat
Or Guru Singh in slacks

When the lord gets ready
You gotta move

You may be a macho dad
or fly your rainbow flag
You may be colonial king
Or starving musician who cannot sing

When the lord gets ready
You gotta move

You may feel pride
You may feel shame
You may feel this life
Is just a game

When the lord gets ready
You gotta move, you gotta move, child… you gotta move… you gotta…
