I've heard it somewhere maybe more than once, but not recently and I really cannot recall details. Actually I'm pretty sure I saw a Fb meme of that sequence, but it was more than a year ago and I've no idea if there was any proper credit given for the source. This is going to drive me nuts until someone finds the answer, just sayin' LOL! |

Ready! Fire! I also found something on page 310 of The Papers of Martin Luther King, Jr., that might come from the Langston Hughes poem, Mother to Son: If you can't fly, run; if you can't run, walk; if you can't walk, crawl, but by all means, keep moving! Here's a source that attributes the sentence to King, with a hat tip to Isaiah: https://literarydevices.net/if-you-cant-fly-then-run/ But there's no singing in any of these. |

If you can't crawl, sing (my addition)...Anyway you can make it baby, you keep on moving it on." http://afterstillness.blogspot.co.uk/2008/12/ode-to-odetta.html Plenty for "...keep moving" Martin Luther King Jr https://www.google.com/search?q=run+walk+crawl+keep+moving |
