I've been in every bar Been in every honky-tonk Been tryin' to find my daddy With that broke down piece o' junk Ask everyone to help me Cried, "Help me if you can you'll lnow my daddy He's that trombone playin' man Where is my daddy? Tell me where is my daddy With that big long slidin' thing? I even ask a man That played a steel guitar He said that you don't need him To be moved eight to the bar He brought his amplifier And he hitched it in my plug He planked it, and he plunked it But it just wasn't good enough 'Cause I need my daddy Need my daddy with that big long slidin' thing Well, then a knock came at my door I said, mmh, my daddy's back I opened up the door And there stood Piano Jack He said, "I came to do some tinklin' On your piano keys I said, "Don't make me nervous This ain't no time to tease Just send me my daddy Send me my daddy with that big long slidin' thing Well, the first time he played I ask him how it was done He said, "I blow through here Then I work my fingers and my thumb I slide it right up Then I slide it back again And I gdet a lot o' wind And then I slide it back again That is my daddy With that big long sliding thing, oh yeah
