I’ll Build a Stairway to Paradise

Lyrics

[HENRI] All you preachers Who delight in panning the dancing teachers Let me tell there are a lot of features Of the dance that carry you through [HENRI & COMPANY] The gates of heaven It's madness [HENRI] To be always sitting [HENRI & COMPANY] Around in sadness [HENRI] When you could be learning the steps of gladness You'll be happy when you can do [HENRI & COMPANY] Just six or seven [HENRI] Begin today You'll find it nice The quickest way to paradise When you practice Here's the thing to do Simply say as you go [HENRI, spoken] What you doing in my song? [ADAM, spoken] I wrote it [HENRI] On Monday, happy as a lark You'll be getting started When you learn to tow the mark That's tow the mark [HENRI, ADAM, & COMPANY] Tow the mark! [ADAM] On Tuesday, you ought to show Both your little regals How to do the heel and toe That's the heel and toe [ADAM & COMPANY] Heel and toe! [HENRI] On Wednesday, walk around the block And then every corner Stop and do the eagle walk That's the eagle walk [HENRI & COMPANY] Eagle walk [HENRI] On Thursday, whistle as you go To a journey off to Buffalo [ADAM] On Friday, take a little stroll And do the Oceana roll [HENRI] On Saturday, you then let a go When you do the tow the lo [HENRI & ADAM] On Sunday, I will guarantee That you can do the chivalry Chivalry, chivalry, chivalry All together now! [HENRY, ADAM, & COMPANY] Tow the mark, heel and toe, eagle run off to Buffalo! Oceana roll, tow the lo, chivalry There you go! [DANCE BREAK] [HENRI, ADAM, & COMPANY] I'll build a stairway to paradise With a new step every day I'm going to get there in any price Stand aside, I'm on my way [HENRI] Hey! I've got the blues And up above it's so fair Shoes go on and carry me there [HENRI & COMPANY] I'll build a stairway to paradise [HENRI] With a new step everyday! [HENRI & COMPANY] With a new, step, every, day! [HENRI] Day [COMPANY] I'll build a stairway to paradise With a new step everyday!
