Verse Mom and Papa bought a Chickering 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 low rider Hold me tight honey hold me tighter Then let me go Piano Fighter Let me go Piano Fighter Break Verse 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 low rider Hold me tight honey hold me tighter Then let me go Piano Fighter Let me go Piano Fighter Bridge 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 I ain't going down that long lonesome road Ain't going down that long lonesome roooooad Break Verse I cut a single and it made the charts I took the money and I played my part Got in trouble down in New Orleans I must admit that I was strung out 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 low rider Hold me tight honey hold me tighter Then let me go Piano Fighter Let me go Piano Fighter Outro
