"Little By Little" lyrics

"Little By Little"

Going to get to where we're going
Going to gas up Granny's car
One wheel in front of the other
Take Monterey, then Mars

Saved up all our Dollars
Hustling in the bars
Tips, Jukes, and Winning Hands
Locked tight in mason jars

Bit by bit
Little by little
Mile after mile
Ridin' in Granny's Car

Bit by bit
Little by little
Truck Stops and state lines
On the road to Shangri-La

There's one for the money
Six makes a show
Three's our lucky number
Pops, Junior, and Holy Ghost

Blow through the embers
Watch the fire grow
Breath by breath by breath
Blow by blow by blow

Bit by bit
Little by little
Measure for measure
Bar to bar

Bit by bit
Little by little
Side by side
On the road to Shangri-La

They're gonna ask us how we found it
How'd we make it in the clear
First, Gradually then Suddenly
Took almost forty years

Met Crooks and fools along the way
Some Saints and Heroes, too
Some passengers, some drivers
Some stops for barbecue

The Journey of an endless soul
Begins with a baby crawl
Then, a ride off in a sunset
That never sets at all

Bit by bit
Little by little
Mile after mile
On the Road to Shangri-La

Bit by bit
Little by little
Step by step by step
By step by step... oh
