From the recording My Ladder Goes To Heaven
Lyrics
<p>MY LADDER GOES TO HEAVEN</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lord almighty, I have sinned</p>
<p>Knocked over by a strong ill wind</p>
<p>But like I never thought it could</p>
<p>This one blew a lot of good</p>
<p> </p>
<p>A demon sat down on my bed</p>
<p>Held my hand and sweetly said</p>
<p>“Do you still remember how</p>
<p>To reach for what you need right now”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Lord forgive my tired eyes</p>
<p>They couldn’t see through her disguise</p>
<p>“Cause she was lookin’ mighty fine</p>
<p>And when we kissed it felt divine</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chorus</p>
<p>I thought she was an angel</p>
<p>One of the chosen few</p>
<p>Wherever she might take me</p>
<p>I knew I’d love the view</p>
<p>I was feeling old</p>
<p>When she said “the night is young</p>
<p>My ladder goes to heaven</p>
<p>Let’s get off the bottom rung”</p>
<p>Yeah, I was feeling old</p>
<p>When she said “the night is young.</p>
<p>My ladder goes to heaven</p>
<p>Let’s get off the bottom rung”</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We didn’t make a holy climb</p>
<p>But we sure had a real good time</p>
<p>But now I look in my soul and see</p>
<p>A fire where there shouldn’t be</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Could be the spirit, could be hell</p>
<p>You know sometimes it’s hard to tell</p>
<p>I’ll have to let it burn a while</p>
<p>To see if it still makes me smile</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I wonder if a pretty face</p>
<p>Could always make me fall from grace</p>
<p>Please put me though this test again</p>
<p>Until forever, Lord, amen</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Chorus </p>
