Beat me daddy
Eight to the bar
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 just is eight to the bar
When he jams, it's a ball
He's the daddy of them all
The people gather around
When he gets on the stand
Then when he plays
He gets a hand
The rhythm he plays
Puts the cats in a trance
Nobody there bothers to dance
And when he jams with the bass and guitar
They holler out
"Beat me daddy, eight to the bar"
A-plink, a-plank, a-plink plank, plink plank
A-plunking on the keys
A-riff, a-raff, a-riff raff, riff raff
A-riffing out with ease
And when he jams it's a ball
He's the daddy of them all
Well there's a little honky-tonky village in Texas
Where's a guy who plays the best piano by far
