Lyrics 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
them
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
out,
"Beat
me
Daddy,
eight
to
the
bar"
A-plink,
a-plank,
a-plink
plank,
plink
plank
A-plunkin'
on
the
keys
A-riff,
a-raff,
a-riff
raff,
riff
raff
A-riffin'
out
with
ease
And
when
he
plays
with
the
bass
and
guitar
They
holler
out,
"Beat
me
Daddy,
eight
to
the
bar"
He
plays
a
boogie,
he
plays
eight
to
the
bar
A
boogie-woogie,
that
is
the
way
he
likes
to
play
on
his
piano
And
we
all
know
That
when
he
plays
he
puts
them
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
up
on
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
out,
"Beat
me
Daddy,
eight
to
the
bar"
A-plink
plink,
a-plank
plank,
a-plink
plank,
plink
plank
A-plunkin'
on
the
keys
A-riff
riff,
a-raff
raff,
a-riff
raff,
riff
raff
A-riffin'
out
with
ease
But
when
he
plays
with
the
bass
and
guitar
They
holler
out,
"Beat
me
Daddy,
eight
to
the
bar"
