Album: Live at Gilley's
With His Lost Planet Airmen
Well, there's a little
Honky tonky village in Texas
Where's a guy who plays
The best piano by far
He can play piano
Any way you like it
But the way he plays it best
Is eight to the bar
When he jams, it's a ball
He's the daddy of them all
The people gather round
When he gets on the stand
And when he plays
He gets a hand
The rhythm he plays
Puts the cats in a trance
Nobody there bothers to dance
And when they jam
With the bass and guitar
They holler, oh, beat me, Daddy
Eight to the bar
I said plink, plink, plink
Plink, plink, plink, plink
Plunking on the keys
Riff raff, riff raff, riff raff
Riffing up with ease
When he jams, it's a ball
He's the daddy of them all
People, one time, yeah
Well, now there's a little
Honky tonky village in Texas
Where's a guy who plays
The best piano by far
He can play piano
Any way you like it
But the way he plays it best
Is eight to the bar
When he jams, it's a ball
He's the daddy of them all
Yeah, the people gather round
When he gets on the stand
And when he plays
He gets a hand
The rhythm he plays
Puts the cats in a trance
Nobody there bothers to dance
And when they jam
With the bass and guitar
They holler, oh, beat me, Daddy
Eight to the bar
I said plink, plink, plink
Plink, plink, plank, plink
Plunking on the keys
Riff raff, riff raff, riff raff
Riffing up with ease
When he jams, it's a ball
He's the daddy of them all
Let's jam one time
Oh, beat me, Daddy
Eight to the bar
