Davis Jr., Sammy - Rhythm Of Life Lyrics

Daddy started out in San Francisco
Tootin' on his trumpet loud and mean
Suddenly a voice said, go forth, Daddy
Spread the picture on a widest screen
And the voice said, Daddy, there's a million pigeons
Waitin' to be hooked on new religions
Hit the road, Daddy leave your common law wife
Spread the religion of the rhythm of life

And the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet
Rhythm in your bedroom, rhythm in the street
Yes, the rhythm of life is a powerful beat

To feel the rhythm of life
To feel the powerful beat
To feel the tingle in your fingers
To feel the tingle in your feet

And the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet
Rhythm in your bedroom, rhythm in the street
Yes, the rhythm of life is a powerful beat

Daddy spread the gospel in Milwaukee
Took his walkie talkie to Rocky Ridge
Blew his way to Canton then to Scranton
Till he landed under the Manhattan bridge

Daddy was a new sensation, got himself a congregation
Built up quite an operation down below
With the pie-eyed piper blowing while the muscatel was flowing
All the cats were go go going down below

Daddy was a new sensation, got himself a congregation
Built up quite an operation down below
With the pie-eyed piper blowing while the muscatel was flowing
All the cats were go go going down below

With the pie-eyed piper blowing
While the muscatel was flowing
All the cats were go, go, going down below

Flip your wings and fly to Daddy
Flip your wings and fly to Daddy
Flip your wings and fly to Daddy
Fly, fly, fly to Daddy

Take a dive and swim to Daddy
Take a dive and swim to Daddy
Take a dive and swim to Daddy
Swim, swim, swim to Daddy

Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy
Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy
Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy
Crawl, crawl, crawl to Daddy

And the rhythm of life is a powerful beat
Puts a tingle in your fingers and a tingle in your feet
Rhythm in your bedroom, rhythm in the street
Yes, the rhythm of life is a powerful beat

To feel the rhythm of life
To feel the powerful beat
To feel the tingle in your fingers
To feel the tingle in your feet

To feel the rhythm of life
To feel the powerful beat
To feel the tingle in your fingers
To feel the tingle in your

Flip your wings and fly to your Daddy
Take a dive and swim to your Daddy
Hit the floor and crawl to your Daddy
Daddy, we got the rhythm of life, of life, of life, of life
Yeah, let me hear it
Sock it to me
Let it all hang out
