We're a Winner

[Intro: Philip Bailey]

Ah, yeah, mhm

Listen

[Verse 1: Philip Bailey]

We're a winner and never let anybody say

Boy, you can’t make it 'cause a feeble mind is in your way

No more tears do we cry

And we can finally dried our eyes

[Chorus: Philip Bailey & Bilal]

'Cause we’re movin' on up (Movin' on up)

Lord have mercy, we're movin' on up (Movin' on up)

[Verse 2: Philip Bailey]

We're living proof in all's alert

That we’re two from the good black earth

And we’re a winner

And everybody knows it, too

[Pre-Chorus: Philip Bailey]

We'll just keep on pushin’

Oh, like your leaders tell you to

At last that blessed day has come

And I don't care where you come from

[Chorus: Philip Bailey & Bilal]

'Cause we're movin’ on up (Movin' on up)

Lord have mercy, we're movin' on up (Movin' on up)

Yeah

[Bridge: Philip Bailey & Bilal]

Oh, yeah, yeah (Movin', movin')

Movin' (Movin', movin')

Groovin' (Movin', movin')

[Chorus: Philip Bailey & Bilal]

We're just movin' on up, yeah, yeah (Movin' on up)

Lord have mercy, we're movin' on up, yeah (Movin' on up)

We're just movin' on up (Movin' on up)

Lord have mercy, we're movin' on up, yeah (Movin' on up)

[Verse 3: Philip Bailey]

Hey, now, I don't mind leavin' here

To show the world we have no fear

'Cause we're a winner

And everybody knows it, too

[Pre-Chorus: Philip Bailey]

You just keep on pushin'

Like your leaders tell you to

At last that blessed day has come

And I don't care where you come from

[Chorus: Philip Bailey & Bilal]

We're just movin' on up (Movin' on up)

Lord have mercy, we're movin' on up, yes, we are (Movin' on up)

We're just movin' on up

Lord have mercy, we're movin' on up (Have mercy)

[Refrain: Philip Bailey & Bilal]

Movin' (Movin' on up), movin'

[Verse 4: Philip Bailey]

Now, I don't mind leavin' here—no, I don't

To show the world we have no fear

At last that blessed day has come

And I don't care where you come from
