Get on up, move on out
Head on home your time is now
Willy Mays, an honest man
He took his life, into his hand
The day he saw red men come
To take his stock and burn his home
He said
‘Get on up, move on out,
Head on home your time is now
The choice is yours, flight or fly
But if you stand, surely you will die
The leader stopped, stared Willy down
Pulled up his horse, slid to the ground
He walked towards Willy Mays
Arms open wide, smile on his face and he said
‘Get on up, move on out,
Head on home your time is now
The choice is yours, flight or fly
But if you stand, surely you will die
Willy’s gun trembled in his hand
Too scared to run, to leave his papa’s land
He raised his gun towards the devil’s eyes
Before he could shoot though an arrow pierced his side,
You gotta
‘Get on up, move on out,
Head on home your time is now
The choice is yours, flight or fly
But if you stand, surely you will die
