stairway to heaven

I was listening to the Led Zeppelin song Stairway to Heaven today, which seems to be about a lady who tries to buy a stairway to heaven instead of following her inner Holy Spirit. ( At least that's what I get out of the lyrics).  It reminded me of when people give their savings to televangelists. It may be happening on more of a subconscious level, but deep down, I suspect such Christians are trying to buy their stairway to heaven. 

Here are some of the lyrics: 
​
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And it's whispered that soon, if we all called the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forest will echo with laughter
Yes there are two paths you can go by
but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on
