Piano Man (Expanded Edition Bonus Track)

(album: Thelma Houston - 1972)

Mmm, hmm...
I thought I heard a melody
Drifting up the stairs to me
I saw this old piano man
A-banging on my baby pian
I said: "hey, what you're doing here?
This really ain't your time"
I'm telling you, it nearly blew my mind...

There's something like a song going on, yeah
There's something like a song going on, aha
I never felt such sheer delight
As when I heard the music play
The way he played that night
That old piano man was really something grand

And he wore hot pearl button specks
And a shiny derby hat
And this old piano man, with the magic in his hands
Was telling me what I've been missing
It's so plain to see
And I'm telling you, child, it nearly blew my mind...
Oh yeah, come on y'all!

There's something like a song going on, yeah, yeah
There's something like a song going on, huh, huh
I never felt such sheer delight
As when I heard the music play
The way he played that night
That old piano man was really something grand

Oh... come on, piano man!
Ooh, sounds so good to me
(I'm gonna make you feel happy, girl)
Ooh, piano man...

There's something like a song going on, yeah, yeah...
There's something like a song going on, oh yeah
I never felt such sheer delight
As when I heard the music play
The way he played that night
That old piano man was really something grand

(There's something like a song going on, yeah
There's something like a song going on, yeah
There's something like a song going on, well
There's something like a song going on...)
