Jacob's Ladder - Mark Wills

The clouds prepare for battle In the dark and brooding silence Bruised and sullen stormclouds Have the light of day obscured Looming low and ominous In twilight premature Thunderheads are rumbling In a distant overture All at once, the clouds are parted Light streams down in bright unbroken beams Follow men's eyes as they look to the skies The shifting shafts of shining weave the fabric of their dreams

I met a fan dancer down 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 Oh no, 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, we're climbing Jacob's Ladder Comin' over the airwaves, the man says I'm overdue Sing a song, send some money, join the chosen few Yes, mister I'm not in a hurry and I don't want to be like you, no, no All I want from tomorrow is to get it better than today Step by step, one by one, we're climbing, climbing Step by step, one by one, we're climbing Jacob's Ladder Climbing, climbing, climbing Jacob's Ladder All I want from tomorrow is to get it better than today Step by step, one by one, we're climbing, climbing Step by step, one by one, we're climbing Jacob's Ladder Climbing Jacob's Ladder, Jacob's Ladder Step by step
