Richard M. Sherman
A Step in the Right Direction
[Chorus]
After all its a step in the right direction
It's a step in the right direction after all
After all its a step in the right direction
It's a step in the right direction after all!

[Verse 1]
When a baby spider tries to trap a fly
Often times the silken thread will come awry
Though a tangled web is all that he can claim
It's a step in the right direction all the same!

[Chorus]
All the same it's a step in the right direction
Its a step in the right direction all the same
All the sam its a step in the right direction
Its a step in the right direction all the same

[Verse 2]
When a little sparrow wants to leave the nest
First he has to put his feathers to a test
Tumbling 'round the treetop can't be called success
But its a step in the right direction nonetheless!

[Chorus]
Nonetheless its a step in the right direction!
Its a step in the right direction nonetheless
Nonetheless its a step in the right direction!
Its a step in the right direction nonetheless
[Verse 3]
Watch the tiny tortoise inching up a hill
It may seem to you he's nearly standing still
Though the steps he takes are infinitely small
They're a step in the right direction after all!

[Chorus]
After all its a step in the right direciton
It's a step in the right direction after all
Its a step in the right direction after all!
