| 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!» |
