Everybody always ask me



How I got to play so fine



And friends, I'm gonna tell ya



It really did take some time







Yes, after years and years of practice



And a case of real bad knees



While the other guys were out playin' with the football



I was home bangin' on the keys



And it got me







(*) Right where I am



This is me



Playing the piano



I hope ya like what I do



It's for you



And I'll try and sing right too







I guess I'm really very lucky



That I've got this thing to play



'Cause it can really make me feel good



Even when it's cloudy and grey







Yes, after years and years of practice



And awful allergies that made me sneeze



And now the other guys are out playin' with their girlfriends



And I was still bangin' on the keys



And it got me







Repeat (*)
