Big Man’s Midnight Rumble

Lyrics

[INTRO] In a smoky town where the neon sighs, There’s a man who’s seen the sunrise and the disguise. [VERSE 1] Papa Joe, they call him the Big Man, With a grin so wide it could rival a plan. He’s still a stud, though the years have worn his shoes, And every night he drifts like a sleeping bear, who’d you choose? [PRE-CHORUS] He’s a little cheap, but he’s generous with love, Sells a laugh for a nickel, a hug for a dove. [CHORUS] Oh, Papa Joe, the night is yours to roam, You’re the piano man in the bar, where we find our home. We all love the way you hum those blues, Big Man, you’re a legend, a tune that never goes. [VERSE 2] He’d trade his pocket change for a story to tell, A tale of a night in a town where the rivers fell. He’s got a heart that’s gold, but the wallet’s thin, Yet he keeps the whole world singing from within. [PRE-CHORUS] With a laugh that’s cheap, yet the melody’s sweet, He keeps our hearts in a gentle seat. [CHORUS] Oh, Papa Joe, the night is yours to roam, You’re the piano man in the bar, where we find our home. We all love the way you hum those blues, Big Man, you’re a legend, a tune that never goes. [BRIDGE] When the lights go down and the crowd has gone, He sits with his piano and the night has a song. His fingers dance, the keys glow bright, Even the stars pause for his soft delight. [CHORUS] Oh, Papa Joe, the night is yours to roam, You’re the piano man in the bar, where we find our home. We all love the way you hum those blues, Big Man, you’re a legend, a tune that never goes. [OUTRO] So here’s to the man with a cheap little grin, Who sleeps like a bear, but wakes with a spin. We’ll keep your rhythm, your story in tune, Papa Joe, Big Man, you’re forever in our moon.
