Karaoké Beat Me Daddy, Eight to the Bar The Andrews Sisters

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 to play is eight to the bar

When he plays it's a ball he's the daddy of 'em all

The people gather around 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

But when he plays with the bass and guitar they holler, oh beat me

Daddy, eight to the bar

A plink, a plank a plink, a plank a plink, a plank a plunkin' on the keys

A riff, a raff a riff, a raff, a riff, a raff a-riffin' out with ease

And when he plays with the bass and guitar they holler, oh beat me

Daddy, eight to the bar

He plays a boogie he plays eight to the bar the boogie-woogie

That is the way he likes to play on his piano

And we all know that when he plays he puts 'em all in a trance the cats all holler hooray

You'll hear them say beat me, Daddy eight to the bar

In a little honky-tonky village in Texas there's a guy who plays the best piano by far

When he plays with the bass and guitar

They holler beat me up Daddy beat me, Daddy eight to the bar

The people gather around when he gets upon the stand then when he plays he gets a hand

The rhythm that he plays puts the cats in a trance nobody there ever bothers to dance

But when he plays with the bass and guitar they holler, oh beat me

Daddy, eight to the bar

A plink, plink, a plank, plank a plink, a plank a plink, a plank a plunkin' on the keys

A riff, riff, a raff, raff a riff, a raff, a riff, a raff a-riffin' out with ease

And when he plays with the bass and guitar they holler, oh beat me

Daddy, eight to the bar
