Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar

Lyrics

In a little honky-tonky village in Texas
 There's a guy who plays the best piano by far
 He can play piano any way that you like it
 But the way he likes it best is eight to the bar
 When he plays it's a ball
 He is the daddy of them all
 The people gather round when he gets on the stand
 Then when he plays he gets a hand
 The rhythm he beats puts the cats in a trance
 Nobody there bothers to dance
 And when he jams with the bass and guitar
 They holler all, "Beat me daddy, eight to bar!"
 A plink, plunkin' on the keys
 A-riff, well, a-riffin' out with ease
 And when he jams with the bass and guitar
 They holler all, "Come on and beat me daddy, eight to bar!"
