late at night   when it's dark and cold   I reach out   for someone to hold   when I'm blue   when I'm lonely   she comes through   she's the only one who can   my baby grand   is all I need   in my time   I've wandered everywhere   around this world   she would always be there   any day   any hour   all it takes   is the power in my hands   this baby grand's been good to me   I've had friends   but they've slipped away   I've had fame   but it doesn't stay   I've made fortunes   spent them fast enough   as for women   they don't last with just one man   but baby grand   will stand by me   they say that no one's gonna play this on the radio   they said the melancholy blues were dead and gone   but only songs like these   played in minor keys   keep those memories holding on   I've come far   from the life I strayed in   I've got the scars   from those dives I played in   now I'm home   and I'm weary   in my bones   every dreary one night stand   but baby grand   came home with me   ever since this gig began   my baby grand's been good to me
