ONE FOOT IN HEAVEN
(David Roth / Irvin Drake / Aycock)


Dean Martin (with Hal Kanner & His Orch.) - 1949



One foot in heaven when you hold me, sweet
One foot in heaven right on angel street
We're in a great way, gee, but it's nice
Standing in the gateway to paradise

One foot in heaven on the golden stair
And with the other one I walk on air
Maybe just beginner's luck, but angel
I've got winner's luck 'cause I have you

(Orchestral Break)

One foot in heaven when you hold me, sweet
One foot in heaven right on angel street
We're in a great way, gee, but it's nice
Standing in the gateway to paradise

One foot in heaven on the golden stair
And with the other one I walk on air
Maybe just beginner's luck, but angel
I've got winner's luck 'cause I have you
