Well there's a bridge, and there's a river
That I still must cross
As I'm going on my journey oh I might be lost
And there's a road I have to follow
A place I have to go
Well no-one told me just how to get there
But when I get there I'll know

'Cause I'm taking it
(All) Step by step, bit by bit
Stone by stone yeah, brick by brick, oh yeah
Step by step, day by day,
Mile by mile - Ooh
Ooh, ooh...ooh

(Lead) And this old road is rough and ruined
So many dangers along the way
So many burdens might fall upon me
So many troubles that I'll have to face

Oh but I won't let my spirit fail me (I won't let my spirit fail me)
I ain't gonna let my spirit go (I ain't goona let my spirit go)
Until I get to my destination ('Til I get to my destination)
I'm gonna take it slow because I'm making it

Step by step, bit by bit
Stone by stone, brick by brick
Step by step, day by day
Mile by mile, Go your own way, go your own way

Don't give up, you've got to hold to what you've got
Don't give up, you've got to keep on moving don't stop, yeah yeah

I know you're hurting and I know you're blue
I know you're hurting, but don't let the bad times get to you, you, you, Oh!

I'm taking it
Step by step, bit by bit
Stone by stone, brick by brick
(Ooo...) Step by step, day by day
Mile by mile, Go your own way, go your own way

(Come on baby you've got to keep moving - ad lib)
Bit by bit
Stone by stone, brick by brick
(ooo...) Step by step, day by day
Mile by mile, go your own way, go your own way

(Come on baby you've got to keep moving - ad lib)
Bit by bit
Stone by stone, brick by brick
(ooo...) Step by step, day by day
Mile by mile, go your own way, go your own way
