I'll Build A Stairway To Paradise

Buddy DeSylva / George Gershwin

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's nice
The quickest way to paradise
When you practice, here's the thing to do
Simply say as you go

Chorus (2x):
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
