Jakob`s got a ladder
Climbs up to the sun
Once you get to the top of it
You`re going to be someone
Now I`ve got a ladder
And it climbs up to the sky
Once I get to the top of it
I`m gonna be good and high
Don`t believe in ladders
Heaven ain`t in the sky
But once you get to the top
Look out kid
(nakarat):
Jakob keep climbing someday
You`re gonna get to the top you see
You`re living your life on Earth
In a state of rebirth
The work is done and time will tell
If you`re living in Hell
This world is a heaven to me
Sharon`s got a rose
Redder than her lipstick
Says, "Brother can you spare a dime?"
And then I give it to her quick
Now I`ve got a rose
But the wine is dirty red
Drink enough for the both of us
In the morning I might be dead
Don`t believe in roses
Heaven ain`t in the sky
But once you get to the top
Look out kid
(nakarat)
Joseph`s got a coat
Covers up the back seat
Takes a hit of his smoke
Then he says he can`t see straight
No, No
I`ve got a vision
Colors too bold to call
Big enough for the both of us
Big enough for us all
Don`t believe in visions
Zion ain`t in the sky
But once you get to the top
Look out kid
(nakarat)
