Текст Bruce Hornsby – Jacob’s Ladder

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

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
