“I’m looking for a city on the other side
and when I get there, I’ll be satisfied
it’s a beautiful city that’s what I’ve been told
where we are not bought and we are not sold”

hatred for love . . . “

Keep on pushing

“Hush now child, and don't you cry
Your folks might understand you, by and by
Move on up, toward your destination
You may find from time to time
Complication

Bight your lip, and take a trip
Though there may be wet road ahead
And you cannot slip
So move on up for peace will find
Into the steeple of beautiful people
Where there's only one kind”
