Well, we're movin' on up (Movin on up!)
To the East Side (Movin on up!)
To a deluxe appartment in the sky.
Mo-movin' on up (Movin on up!)
To the East Side (Movin on up!)
We finally got a piece of the pie!
[Chorus]
Fish don't fry in the kitchen.
Beans don't burn on the grill.
Took a whole lot of tryin'
Just to get up thet hill.
Now we're up in the big league,
Gettin' our turn at bat!
As long as we live
It's you and me, baby!
There ain't nothin' wrong with that!
Oh well, we're movin' on up (Movin on up!)
To the East Side (Movin on up!)
To a deluxe appartment in the sky.
Mo-movin' on up (Movin on up!)
To the East Side (Movin on up!)
We finally got a piece of the pie-ie-ie-ie!
