Warren Zevon - Piano Fighter lyrics
[Warren Zevon - Piano Fighter lyrics]
Every day I'd sit and play that thing
I practiced hard it was more than a whim
I played with grim determination, Jim
Someone called piano fighter
I'm a holy roller, I'm a real lowrider
Hold me tight, honey, hold me tighter
Then let me go, piano fighter
Let me go, piano fighter
I worked in sessions and I played in bands
A thousand casuals and one-night stands
Here on Thursday, gone on Friday
Heading down the Dixie highway
Someone called piano fighter
I'm a holy roller, I'm a real lowrider
Hold me tight, honey, hold me tighter
Then let me go, piano fighter
Let me go, piano fighter
Maybe I'll go to Reno nobody knows my name
I'll play Claire de Lune in a quiet saloon
Steady work for a change
Ain't going down that long, lonesome road
Ain't going down that long, lonesome road, no
I cut a single and it made the charts
I took the money and I played my part
I got in trouble down in New Orleans
I must admit that I was strung out
And painted in the corner of a limousine
Someone called piano fighter
I'm a thin ice walker, I'm a freelance writer
Hold me tight, honey, hold me tighter
Then let me go, piano fighter
Let me go, piano fighter
Someone called piano fighter
I'm a holy roller, I'm a real lowrider
Hold me tight, honey, hold me tighter
Then let me go, piano fighter
Let me go, piano fighter
