Jacob's Ladder |
Jacob was a dirt poor farm boy |
Raised at the fork in the road in a clapboard house |
And Rachael was a land baron’s daughter |
Born with a silver spoon in her mouth |
Her daddy said he wouldn’t stand |
For Rachael to waste her life with a common man |
He tried hard to keep them apart |
But you can’t draw lines in a young girl’s heart |
So late one night by the harvest moon |
Jacob climed a ladder up to Rachael’s room |
He knew his place, it was right beside her |
Step by step up to her world |
Head over heels for a brown-eyed girl |
And gettin' caught didn’t seem to matter |
'Cause heaven was waitin' at the top of Jacob’s ladder |
It’ll be five years September |
Since her daddy found a ladder and a note on her windowsill |
He swore he’d never forgive them |
But nothin' melts a heart like a grandchild will |
Now she climbs up on his knee |
Says, «Grandpa, tell a story, the one about me» |
He thinks back and his eyes shine |
Says, «Listen Child, once upon a time» |
Late one night by the harvest moon |
Your daddy climbed a ladder to your mama’s room |
He knew his place, it was right besde her |
Step by step up to her world |
Head over heels for my little girl |
And here you are, that’s all that matters |
'Cause heaven was watin' at the top of Jacob’s ladder |
Oh, an angel was waitin' at the top of Jacob’s ladder |
