Late at night
When its dark and cold
I reach out
For someone to hold
When Im blue
When Im lonely
She comes through
Shes the only one who can
My baby grand
Is all I need
In my time
Ive 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 grands
Been good to me
Ive had friends
But theyve slipped away
Ive had fame
But it doesnt stay
Ive made fortunes
Spent them fast enough
As for women
They dont last with just one man
But baby grand
Will stand by me
Oh they say, no ones gonna play this on the radio
They said that melancholy blues were dead and gone
But only songs like these, played in minor keys
Keep those memories holding on
Ive come far
From the life Ive strayed in
And Ive got the scars
From those dives Ive played in
Now Im home
And Im weary
And in my bones
Every dreary one night stand
But baby grand
Came home with me
Ever since this gig began
My baby grands
Been good to me
