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 Hea-ven.
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 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 Paradise
With 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 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 ev'ry day.
Verse Two
Ev'ry new step
Helps 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 soul
You'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 sleep
You'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 (x2)

I'm dreaming dreams, I'm scheming schemes
I'm building castles high
They're born anew, their days are few
Just like a sweet butterfly
And as the daylight is dawning
They come again in the morning
I'm forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
They fly so high
Nearly reach the sky
Then like my dreams they fade and die
Fortune's always hiding
I've looked ev'rywhere
I'm forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
When shadows creep, when I'm asleep
To lands of hope I stray
Then at daybreak, when I awake
My bluebird flutters away
Happiness, you seem so near me
Happiness, come forth and cheer me
I'm forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
They fly so high
Nearly reach the sky
Then like my dreams they fade and die
Fortune's always hiding
I've looked ev'rywhere
I'm forever blowing bubbles
Pretty bubbles in the air
I'm building castles high
They're born anew, their days are few

And as the daylight is dawning

I'm going to Charleston back to my old racket Charleston, Charleston.
Hang my hat upon the racket Charleston, Charleston
I'm so full of joy today, I could charleston all the way
Feel I landed somewhere makes the eye.
I can almost feel those southern darkies comin', comin'
Playin' that favourite melody of mine.
Keep those anyway, keep them old and stickle fade
I'll Charleston back to Charleston Caroline.
First old eye in Charleston
Grew up right in Charleston
Learned to dance in Charleston
Found romance in Charleston
Proud that I'm from Charleston
Had good times in Charleston
Charleston, hey hey, on my way today.
Hang my hat upon the racket Charleston, Charleston
I'm so full of joy today, I could charleston all the way
Feel I landed somewhere makes the eye.
I can almost feel those southern darkies comin', comin'
Playin' that favourite melody of mine.
Keep those anyway, keep them old and stickle fade
I'll Charleston back to Charleston Caroline.
First old eye in Charleston
Grew up right in Charleston
Learned to dance in Charleston
Found romance in Charleston
Proud that I'm from Charleston
Had good times in Charleston
Charleston, hey hey, on my way today.

She's my girl she's my world she's my life to me
She's my girl she's my world she's my wife to be
She makes me act n' dress my bes
Keeps me filled with the happiness
I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
What a lucky day it was when I met her
What a lucky street to meet with the best
But don't ask me how I come to win her
'Cos I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
She's my girl she's my world she's my life to me
She's my girl she's my world she's my wife to be
She makes me act and dress my best
Keeps me filled with the happiness
I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
She will give me memories extra special
She's so different not like all the rest
Since I met her how I've changed
She's gonna let me change her name
I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
She's my girl she's my world she's my life to me
She's my girl she's my world she's my wife to be
She makes me act and dress my best
Keeps me filled with the happiness
I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
She's my girl she's my world she's my wife to be
She makes me act n' dress my bes
Keeps me filled with the happiness
I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
What a lucky day it was when I met her
What a lucky street to meet with the best
But don't ask me how I come to win her
'Cos I don't know I'm just lucky I guess
She's my girl she's my world she's my life to me
She's my girl she's my world she's my wife to be

Well I've come here to tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a tramp and a gambler, I stay out late at night
But a porterhouse steak, three times a day for my board
That's more than any loafer in this big town can afford
Well I got an electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playin' round at my feet
I'm a rambler and a gambler and I've lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
Well then I got married, I knew I'd settle down
And I built a little love nest right here in my hometown
Now I've got a family, one that I'm proud of
I know that we'll be happy cause they're the ones I love
Got an electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playin' round at my feet
I'm a rambler and a gambler and I've lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a rambler and a gambler I've lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
I'm a tramp and a gambler, I stay out late at night
But a porterhouse steak, three times a day for my board
That's more than any loafer in this big town can afford
Well I got an electric fan to keep me cool while I sleep
A little baby boy playin' round at my feet
I'm a rambler and a gambler and I've lead a dirty life
Well I tell you folks I'm ragged but I'm right
Well then I got married, I knew I'd settle down
And I built a little love nest right here in my hometown

I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm rolling along
Yes, rolling along
And I'm quitting the blues of the world
I'm singing a song
Yes, singing a song
Glory hallelujah, I just phoned the parson
Hey, par, get ready to call
Just like Humpty Dumpty
I'm going to fall
And I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm rolling along
Rolling along
Don't want any millions
I'm getting my share
I've only got one suit (just one)
That's all I can wear
A bundle of money don't make you feel gay
A sweet little honey is making me say
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm rolling along
Rolling along
I'm quitting the blues of the world
I'm singing a song
Yes singing a song
Glory hallelujah, I just phoned the parson
Hey, par, get ready to call
Just like Humpty Dumpty,
I'm going to fall
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm rolling along
Rolling along
I'm rolling along
Yes, rolling along
And I'm quitting the blues of the world
I'm singing a song
Yes, singing a song
Glory hallelujah, I just phoned the parson
Hey, par, get ready to call
Just like Humpty Dumpty
I'm going to fall
And I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm rolling along
Rolling along
Don't want any millions
I'm getting my share
I've only got one suit (just one)
That's all I can wear
A bundle of money don't make you feel gay
A sweet little honey is making me say
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm rolling along
Rolling along
I'm quitting the blues of the world
I'm singing a song
Yes singing a song
Glory hallelujah, I just phoned the parson
Hey, par, get ready to call
Just like Humpty Dumpty,
I'm going to fall
I'm sitting on top of the world
I'm rolling along
