Everybody always asks 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
Whil the other guys were out playin´ with the football
I was home bangin´ on the keys
And it got me

Right were 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

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
