I'll Build a Stairway to Paradise

All you preachers who delight in panning the dancing teachers

Let me tell you there are a lot of features of the dance that carry you through

The gates of Heaven

It's madness to be always sitting around in sadness

When you could be learning the steps of gladness

You'll be happy when you can do

Just six or seven

Begin today you'll find it nice

The quickest way to paradise

When you practise

Here's the thing to do

Simply say as you go

I'll build a stairway to Paradise

With a new step every day

I'm going to get there at any price

Stand aside, I'm on my way

I've got the blues and up above it's so fair

Shoes, go on and carry me there

I'll build a stairway to Paradise

With a new step every day

I'll build a stairway to Paradise

With a new step every day

I'm going to get there at any price

Stand aside, I'm on my way

I've got the blues and up above it's so fair

Shoes, go on and carry me there

I'll build a stairway to Paradise

Oh, with a new step every day
