All you preachersWho delight in panning the dancing teachers,Let me tell you there are a lot of featuresOf the dance that carry you throughThe gates of Hea-ven.It's madnessTo be always sitting around in sadness,When you could be learning the steps of gladness.You'll be happy when you can doJust six or seven;Begin to day!You'll find it nice,The quickest way to paradise.When you practise,Here's the thing to know,Simply say as you go...[Chorus]I'll build a stairway to ParadiseWith a new step ev'ry day !I'm gonna get there at any price;Stand aside, I'm on my way !I've got the bluesAnd up above it's so fair.Letras de cancionesShoes ! Go on and carry me there !I'll build a stairway to ParadiseWith a new step every day.Every new stepHelps a bit ; but any old kind of two step,Does as well. It don't matter what step you step,If you work it into your soulYou'll get to Heaven.Get bu-sy ;Dance with Maud the countess, or just plain Lizzy:Dance until you're blue in the face and dizzy.When you've learn'd to dance in your sleepYou're sure to win out.In time you'll get Saint Vitus dance,Which beats the latest thing from France.Take no chances on this Paradise ;Let me give you advice.[Chorus: x 2]
