Jenny's Daddy ft. Joel Guzman Lyrics

Jenny's Daddy played the accordion

Back in '67 at the Wintergarden

He could play the Beatles and The Rolling Stones

Old timey Polkas and country songs

When Jenny's Daddy played we'd all sing along

Dance to the melodies all night long

Waltzing and two steppin' across the floor

We'd holler out requests and then we'd yell for more

When Jenny's Daddy played

The world spun away

Everything would be all-right

For a while on a Saturday night

His fingers flew across the keys

He'd push the buttons, pull and squeeze

All our worries would simply fade

When Jenny's Daddy played

Jenny's Daddy had four kids at home

His wife was the saint who kept them fed and clothed

Somehow he managed to make enough

Somehow they made it through when things were tough

Jenny's Dad accompanied music stars

But he drove across the country in a beat up car

Back when boys were fighting in Viet Nam

He kept the music playing for their moms and dads

Jenny's Daddy played

The world spun away

Everything would be all-right

For a while on a Saturday night

His fingers flew across the keys

He'd push the buttons, pull and squeeze

All our worries would simply fade

When Jenny's Daddy played

Jenny's Dad played every night

Under every kind of light

But the biggest lights in Gary's life

Were the ones in Jenny's eyes

Jenny's Daddy played at the local cafe

After he retired and his memory went away

He still had the songs inside his heart and hands

He still had the rhythms and he still had the fans

Jenny's Daddy played

The world spun away

Everything would be all-right

For a while on a Saturday night

His fingers flew across the keys

He's push the buttons, he'd pull and squeeze

All our worries would simply fade

When Jenny's Daddy played

Jenny's Daddy played the accordion
