Hornsby Bruce Jacob`s Ladder Lyrics

Jacob`s Ladder Lyrics

I met a fan dancer down in southside Birmingham

 She was running from a fat man selling salvation in his hand

 She said he's tryin' to save me

 But I'm doin' alright, the best that I can

 Just a pair of fallen angels tryin' to get through the night

 

 Step by step, one by one, higher and higher

 Step by step, one by one, climbing Jacob's ladder

 

 Comin' over the airwaves the man says I'm overdue

 Sing a song, send money, join the chosen few

 But mister I'm not in a hurry, and I don't want to be like you

 All I want from tomorrow is to get it better than today

 

 Step by step, one by one, higher and higher

 Step by step, one by one, climbing Jacob's ladder

 

 All I want from tomorrow is to get it better than today

 Step by step, one by one, higher and higher

 Step by step, one by one, climbing Jacob's ladder
