Oh take my heart and let it beat
To the sound of dancing feet
Then take those feet and let them glide
My baby's sweet, gonna be my bride

(Chorus:)
I've got a girl, she's got a man
All of God's children, they clap their hands
I've got her heart and she's got mine
My baby's good and I feel fine
We are climbing Jacob's Ladder
We are climbing Jacob's Ladder
We are climbing Jacob's Ladder

Up

Oh take my eyes and let them run
To the sight of distant drums
Then take those drums and let them boom-boom
My baby's fun, gonna be her groom

(Chorus)

Oh take my voice and let it yell
At the sight of wedding bells
Then take those bells and let them ring
My baby's swell now let's all sing

(Chorus)
