Jacob'S Ladder

I met a fat dancer down southside Birmingham
She was running from a fat man selling salvation in his hand
He said he's trying to save me but I'm doing alright, best that I can
We're 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
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 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
Jacob's ladder
Step by step
