[Verse 1: Richard Carpenter]
Everybody always asked me
How I got to play so fine?
And friends, I'm gonna tell ya
It really did take some time
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Yes, after years and years of practice
And a case of real bad knees
While the other guys were out playin' with the football
I was home bangin' on the keys
[Chorus]
And it got me
Right where I am
This is me
Playing the piano
Hope ya like what I do
It's for you
And I'll try and sing right too
Doo-doo-doo-doo
[Verse 2]
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 gray
