One step, then another
One day at a time
The battle's never over
The mountain so high to climb
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Cry each time I fall
To be good takes a long time
But to be bad, no time at all

With all of my heart I know so well
Before you can walk you must crawl
To be good takes a long time
But to be bad, no time at all

Fine-sounding intentions
Pave the road to hell
I walked out my front door
But after that I can't tell
Cry, cry, cry, cry, cry, cry
Cry each time I fall
To be good takes a long time
But to be bad, no time at all

With all of my heart I know so well
Before you can walk you must crawl
To be good takes a long time
But to be bad, no time at all
To be bad, no time at all
To be bad, no time at all
