Jakob

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

(chorus):

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

(chorus)

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

(chorus)
