Jacob's Ladder - Mark Wills[00:00:00]
Written by:Sweat|Martin[00:00:00]
Jacob was a dirt poor farm boy[00:00:13]
Raised at the fork in the road in a clapboard house[00:00:15]
And Rachael was a land baron's daughter[00:00:22]
Born with a silver spoon in her mouth[00:00:25]
Her daddy said he wouldn't stand[00:00:32]
For Rachael to waste her life with a common man[00:00:34]
He tried hard to keep them apart[00:00:41]
But you can't draw lines in a young girl's heart[00:00:44]
So late one night by the harvest moon[00:00:50]
Jacob climed a ladder up to Rachael's room[00:00:53]
He knew his place it was right beside her[00:00:56]
Step by step up to her world[00:01:02]
Head over heels for a brown-eyed girl[00:01:05]
And gettin' caught didn't seem to matter[00:01:08]
'Cause heaven was waitin' at the top of Jacob's ladder[00:01:14]
It'll be five years September[00:01:30]
Since her daddy found a ladder and a note on her windowsill[00:01:33]
He swore he'd never forgive them[00:01:40]
But nothin' melts a heart like a grandchild will[00:01:43]
Now she climbs up on his knee[00:01:49]
Says "Grandpa tell a story the one about me"[00:01:52]
He thinks back and his eyes shine[00:01:58]
Says "Listen Child once upon a time"[00:02:01]
Late one night by the harvest moon[00:02:08]
Your daddy climbed a ladder to your mama's room[00:02:11]
He knew his place it was right besde her[00:02:14]
Step by step up to her world[00:02:20]
Head over heels for my little girl[00:02:23]
And here you are that's all that matters[00:02:26]
'Cause heaven was watin' at the top of Jacob's ladder[00:02:32]
Oh an angel was waitin' at the top of Jacob's ladder[00:02:38]
