Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Verse 3]
Begin today, you'll find it nice
The quickest way to Paradise
When you practice
Here's the things to do
Simply say as you go
[Verse 4]
I'll build a stairway to Paradise
With a new step every day
I'm gonna 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
[Verse 5]
I'll build a stairway to Paradise
With a new step every day
I'm gonna 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
Written by: Buddy DeSylva, George Gershwin, Ira Gershwin
