|
Everybody wants to leave this town, |
|
But don't let that one red light slow you down, |
|
Go on and chase your crazy dreams around, |
|
A piece of tin blew off the barn last night, |
|
I've got my own ladders to climb |
|
My baby's names up on the water tank, |
|
A big "I Love You" left by her old flame, |
|
Man I can't look at it another day, |
|
I've got some elbow grease and some turpentine, |
|
I've got my own ladders to climb |
|
ChorusDon't need to be on top, |
|
I'm good with what |
|
I've got,Just let me hang one bright,star up there in the sky |
|
And try to be the man, |
|
My baby thinks |
|
I am.Just wanna live my life,one step at a time. |
|
Yeah, I've got my own ladders to climb. |
|
The day is coming when they load that train, |
|
With all the sinners he turned into saints. |
|
And I know right now thats something that |
|
I ain't.And |
|
I dont want to be left behind. |
|
So I've got my own ladders to climb. |
|
ChorusCan't buy a ticket there, |
|
You've got to earn your fair. |
|
Just let me be one bright,star up there in the sky. |
|
And do the best |
|
I can,To be a better man. |
|
Just want to live my life, |
|
One step at a time. |
|
Yeah, I've got my own ladders to climb |
|
Well I've got my own, ladders to climb. |
|
Ladders to climb. |
