It's not high finance, it's called heart and soul
If it's rock and roll, got to go, go, go, go, go
Gonna keep moving on up to the higher ground

Gonna keep on moving on up, I got to stand my ground
Gonna keep on moving on up, I wanna stick around
Won't let the !@$(s grind me down

Won't let the !@$(s grind me down
Won't let the !@$(s grind me down


Call me raincheck in the afternoon
Call me raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues
Call me raincheck, on a golden autumn day

Call me raincheck, I won't fade away, I won't fade away
I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I want to


Can't take my love away, ah 'cause it's here to stay
If it fades away, come back another day
Gonna keep on moving on up to the higher ground

Gonna keep on moving on up, I wanna stick around
Gonna keep on moving on up, oh gonna stand my ground
Won't let the !@$(s grind me down

Won't let the !@$(s grind me down
Won't let the !@$(s grind me down


My name is raincheck in the afternoon
My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues
My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day

My name is raincheck, and I don't fade away, I don't fade
away
I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I want to


Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up
Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up

Move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up, move it up
Grind me down, grind me down, grind me down


My name is raincheck in the afternoon
My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues
My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day

My name is raincheck, and I don't fade away, I don't fade
away
I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I want to


Put on your dancing shoes, dance away your blues
When I'm feeling like this, I got nothing to lose

Wanna keep on moving on up to the higher ground
Wanna keep on moving on up and I'll stick around
Wanna keep on moving on up, got to stand my ground

Won't let the !@$(s grind me down
Won't let the !@$(s grind me down
Oh, won't let the !@$(s grind me down


My name is raincheck in the afternoon
My name is raincheck, need a shot of rhythm and blues

My name is raincheck, on a golden autumn day
My name is raincheck, and I don't fade away, I don't fade
away

I don't fade away, I don't fade away, unless I choose
I choose, I choose, I choose


No, I don't fade away, I don't fade away, I don't fade away
Unless I choose, I choose, I choose
I choose, I choose, I choose

I choose, I choose, I choose
I choose, I choose, I choose
I choose, I choose, I choose

No, I won't fade away, I won't fade away, I don't fade away
Unless I want to
