Step By Step

I was just a joker in a serious game

I didn't have the heart to play

But sooner or later

I'll find a reason to throw it away

Risin' on the crest of a natural wave

That never seems to break my way

I'm livin' without it

But I got to do somethin' about it

Step by step

Little by little (move a little closer to me)

Step by step

Take it line by line (one day at a time)

Move, move, move

Move a little closer (move a little closer to me)

Step by step

The deal is mine

I was just a runner in a one-horse race

Livin' on the don't pass line

Sooner or later

I got to lose 'cause I'm wastin' my time

Lady Luck must have been a wonderful girl

She's never been a friend of mine

I'm livin' without her

But I still got that mountain to climb

Step by step

Little by little (move a little closer to me)

Step by step

Take it line by line (one day at a time)

Move, move, move

Move a little closer (move a little closer to me)

Step by step

The deal is mine

Step by step

Little by little (move a little closer to me)

Step by step

Take it line by line (one day at a time)

Move, move, move

Move a little closer (move a little closer to me)

Step by step

Ooh, the deal is mine
