Steppenwolf Move Over Lyrics

Move Over Lyrics

Words and music by John Kay and Gabriel Mekler



Things look bad from over here

Too much confusion and no solution

Everyone here knows your fear

You're out of touch and you try too much



Yesterday's glory won't help us today

You wanna retire?

Get out of the way



The country needs a father

Not an uncle or big brother

Someone to keep the peace at home

If we can't get together 

Look out for stormy weather

Don't make me pay for your mistakes

I have to pay my own



Yesterday's glory won't help us today

You wanna retire?

Get out of the way



I ain't got much time

The young ones close behind

I can't wait in line



If we can not wake you

Then we'll have to shake you

Though some say you'll only understand a gun

Got to prove them wrong 

Or you will lose the battle

Don't you know we'll start a war

Which will be won by none



Yesterday's glory won't help us today

You wanna retire?

Get out of the way



I ain't got much time

The young ones close behind

I can't wait in line





Move over

Come on, Move Over



Repeat Chorus
