(Lead vocal - Lenny Zakatek) 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 something about it Step by step little by little Step by step take it line by line Move move move, move a Little closer 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 wasting my time Lady luck must have been a wonderful girl She's never been a Friend of mine I'm living without her But I still got that mountain to climb Step by step little by little Step by step rake it line by line Move move move, move a little closer Step by step the Deal is mine
