The Bacon Brothers - Ba lyrics

Written by Michael Bacon

"No one asked me, but that's my advice. Thanks to that soul-clapping audience of Yale Rep on 12/8/00." MB

My friend Steve he wears his heart on his sleeve

All the girls seem to leave him lonely

Well, I'm a nice guy with a shoulder to cry on

With one bit of advice only

You gotta inch your way, working every day

Showing her all your love

Lighten her load but keep it on the road and you'll grow it

So don't you blow it

Take another baby step, up the mountain of love

It's a long, long ways and so high up above

Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb

That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time

Icarus standing on the shore with his dad, saying that he wants to fly

Dad says son I can hook up the wings if you promise not to go too high

But he forgot what he said and he lost his head

He headed straight for the sun

That sealed his fate, he was a little too late for returning

Now he's burning

Take another baby step, up the mountain of love

It's a long, long ways and so high up above

Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb

That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time

Keep a walking. Little bitty steps are gonna work it brother

Keep a walking right on

Putting one foot in front of the other, take it

Take another baby step, up the mountain of love

It's a long, long ways and so high up above

Hold her hand so tightly and up, up you will climb

That wonderful mountain of love, one baby step at a time
