Up the steepest mountain   Across the choppy ocean water   Over fiery pits of coal   And off into decision   Steady as she goes,   Steady as she goes   The caves of easy quiet   Are blocked by heavy boulders   Steady as she goes,   Steady as she goes      Up the steepest mountain   Across the choppy ocean water   Over fiery pits of coal   And off into decision   Steady as she goes,   Steady as she goes   Hidden off to sides   In the margins of distraction   Steady as she goes,   Steady as she goes   The caves of easy quiet   Are blocked by heavy boulders   Steady as she goes,   Steady as she goes
