Daddy started out in San Francisco
Tooting on his trumpet loud and mean
Suddenly a voice said, "Go forth, Daddy
Spread the picture on a wider screen"
And the voice said, "Daddy there's a million pigeons
Waiting 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
And the rhythm of life is a powerful beat (to feel the rhythm of life)
Puts a tingle in your fingers (to feel the powerful beat)
And a tingle in your feet
Rhythm in your bedroom, rhythm in the street (to feel a tingle in your fingers)
Yes, the rhythm of life is a powerful beat (to feel a tingle in your feet)
And the rhythm of life is a powerful beat (to feel the rhythm of life) (Daddy-O)
Puts a tingle in your fingers (to feel the powerful beat) (go, go, go)
And a tingle in your feet
Rhythm in your bedroom (tell them everything)
Rhythm in the street (to feel a tingle in your fingers)
Yes, the rhythm of life is a powerful beat (to feel a tingle in your feet) (you know)
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 (Daddy was a)
Got himself a congregation (new sensation)
Built up quite an operation down below (got himself a congregation)
With the pie-eyed piper blowing (built up quite an)
While the muscatel was flowing (operation)
All the cats were go-go-going (down below)
Down below
Daddy was a new sensation (with the pie-eyed)

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
And the rhythm of life is a powerful beat (to feel the rhythm of life)
Puts a tingle in your fingers (to feel the powerful beat)
And a tingle in your feet
Rhythm in your bedroom, rhythm in the street (to feel a tingle in your fingers)

Rhythm in your bedroom (tell them everything)
Rhythm in the street (to feel a tingle in your fingers)
Yes, the rhythm of life is a powerful beat (to feel a tingle in your feet) (you know)
To feel the rhythm of life
To feel the powerful beat
To feel a tingle in your fingers
To feel a tingle in your feet
Flip your wings and fly to Daddy
Take a dive and swim to Daddy
Hit the floor and crawl to Daddy
Daddy, we got the rhythm of life
Of life, of life, of life
Yeah yeah yeah man!
