Ladder Of Success Lyrics - Skeeter Davis

Nothing can stop him now no one can top him now 

I guess I'll have to let him go 

Up, up, up, the ladder of success (up, up, up, up.) 

Once he let me share his dreams 

But now that they come true it seems 

He doesn't want my love I guess look there goes my happiness 

They're climbin' up up up the ladder of success 

(The ladder of success.) 

Things are like he said they'd be 

I thought his plans included me 

He forgot his words of love fame is all he's thinking of 

A going up up up up the ladder of success 

(The ladder of success.) 

I liked him better in his white dungarees 

When he was all mine with patches on his knees 

(With patches on his knees) 

When his name went up in lights 

All I got were lonely nights.
