I can see her lyin back in her satin dress
In a room where ya do what ya dont confess
Sundown ya better take care
If I find you been creepin round my back stairs
Sundown ya better take care
If I find you been creepin round my back stairs
Shes been lookin like a queen in a sailors dream
And she dont always say what she really means

I live on a big blue ball
I never do dream I may fall
But even the day that I do
I'll jump off and smile back at you

I don't even know where we are
But they tell us we're circling a star
Well, I'll take their word I don't know

One of these days I'm gonna take a vacation
By a quiet and a peaceful shore
And I'll cool my feet in those crystal waters
And I won't have to work anymore.

'Cause my burden has got so heavy
Til I can't stand up alone
I must lay my head down on one strong shoulder

Sassy's daddy's a lawyer, and you can't do better than that
Sassy's daddy's got a three-piece suit, and a grey, crushed-velvet hat;
Years of fancy schooling can't tame Sassy down
No, me, I want to be in the way when Sassy come rollin' round

Sassy, she's got spirit, and you can't do better than that
Plus she's got the sweetest way of tellin' me this and that
Not to mention money, she's too good to be true

Step by step
All the happy Saints go marching in
And if one of those Saints step out of line
He'll have to start again
Cause Jacob's golden ladder
Get's slippery at the top
And many a happy-go-lucky saint
Has made that long long drop
