Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Step by step

All the happy saints go marching in

And if those saints step out of line

They have to start again

'Cause Jacob's golden ladder

Gets slippery at the top

And many a happy-go-lucky saint has made that long, long drop

[Verse 2]

If I'm late, don't wait

Go on without me

I may tarry a while

'Cause I need to know

Before I go

How come the Devil smiles?

[Verse 3]

If I'm late, don't wait

Go on without me

I may tarry a while

'Cause I need to know

Before I go

How come the Devil smiles?

[Verse 4]

Free from care

Free from fear

The saints are trooping in

Children play all around the throne

Innocent of sin

A trillion voices sing the name

The mortal may not know

And Heaven's walls too high to hear

The trouble down below

[Verse 5]

If I'm late, don't wait

Go on without me

I may tarry a while

'Cause I need to know

Before I go

How come the Devil smiles?

[Verse 6]

I need to know

Before I go

How come the Devil smiles?

'Cause I need to know

Before I go

How come the Devil smiles?
