Mark Wills - Jacob`s Ladder слова песни
Jacob was a dirt poor farm boyRaised at the fork in the road in a clapboard houseAnd Rachael was a land baron`s daughterBorn with a silver spoon in her mouthHer daddy said he wouldn`t standFor Rachael to waste her life with a common manHe tried hard to keep them apartBut you can`t draw lines in a young girl`s heartSo late one night by the harvest moonJacob climed a ladder up to Rachael`s roomHe knew his place, it was right beside herStep by step up to her worldHead over heels for a brown-eyed girlAnd gettin` caught didn`t seem to matter`Cause heaven was waitin` at the top of Jacob`s ladderIt`ll be five years SeptemberSince her daddy found a ladder and a note on her windowsillHe swore he`d never forgive themBut nothin` melts a heart like a grandchild willNow she climbs up on his kneeSays, "Grandpa, tell a story, the one about me"He thinks back and his eyes shineSays, "Listen Child, once upon a time"Late one night by the harvest moonYour daddy climbed a ladder to your mama`s roomHe knew his place, it was right besde herStep by step up to her worldHead over heels for my little girlAnd here you are, that`s all that matters`Cause heaven was watin` at the top of Jacob`s ladderOh, an angel was waitin` at the top of Jacob`s ladder
