    Dan Ebberts posted a reply to this exact question like two days ago. I know you’re not the same person, but here’s what he came up with. Add a position animator on the text layer and move it down below the base line of the original text position. Set a track matte to obscure the text start position and add this Expression Selector to your position animator

    delay = .03;
    slideDur = .6;
    myStart = inPoint + textIndex*delay;
    easeOut(time,myStart,myStart+slideDur,100,0)
