Lyrics

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
It gets slippery at the top
And many a happy-go-lucky saint
Has made that long, long drop
If I'm late, don't wait
Just go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles?
If I'm late, don't wait
Just go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles?
Free from care, free from sin
The saints are trooping in
Children play around the throne
Innocent of sin
A trillion voices sing the name
That mortals may not know
And Heaven's walls are too high to hear
The troubles down below
If I'm late, don't wait
Just go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles?
If I'm late, don't wait
Just go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles?
If I'm late, don't wait
Just go on without me
I may tarry awhile
'Cause I need to know
Before I go
How come the Devil smiles?
How come the Devil smiles?
How come the Devil smiles?
How come the Devil smiles?
