Carpenters Lyrics

"Piano Picker" lyrics


Everybody always asks me
How I got to play so fine
And, friends, I'm going to tell you
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 playing with the football
I was home banging on the keys
And it got me

Right where I am
This is me
Playing the piano
I hope you 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 playing with their girlfriends
And I was still banging on the keys
And it got me

Right where I am
This is me
Playing the piano
I hope you like what I do
It's for you
And I'll try and sing right too
