Bruce Hornsby - Jacob's Ladder / Blackberry Blossom lyrics

rate me

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 trying to save me

But I'm doing alright, the best that Ican

Just a pair of fallen angels trying to get through the night

Step by step, one by one, higher and higher

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

Coming 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 just 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
