lyrics

I may live a long, long time
But I'll be cut down in my prime
Cause I don't want to go back downhill
I've been there and I've had my fill
So I'll keep climbing
I'll keep climbing
I'll keep climbing
Rung by rung

What goes up, must come down
But I can't stay down on the ground
Give me a hammer and a box of nails
Build me a ladder that's off the scale
I'll keep climbing
I'll keep climbing
I'll keep climbing
Rung by rung

Land or sea, high or low
I'll take that ladder where I go
Point one end, way up high
Rung by rung up to the sky, and
I'll keep climbing
I'll keep climbing
I'll keep climbing
Rung by rung

There may be a heaven above
Maybe life is just a labor of love
The final rung, I'll count to ten
Climb back down and do it again
Cause I like climbing
I like climbing
I'll keep climbing
Rung by rung
