* 8-bar intro

* Verse 1 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 wider screen."
And the voice said, "Brother, there's a million pigeons
Ready to be hooked on new religions.
Hit the road, Daddy, leave your common-law wife.
Spread the religion of The Rhythm Of Life."

* Chorus 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. (repeat 3x)
{BV 1} (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. (repeat 2x)
{BV 2} (Daddy, go, go go go.
Tell them everything you know.

* Verse 2 Daddy spread the gospel in Milwaukee,
Took his walkie talkie to Rocky Ridge,
Blew his way to Canton, then to Scranton,
'Til he landed under the Manhattan Bridge.

* Hook Daddy was the 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. (repeat 2x)
{BV} (Daddy was the 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.

* Bridge 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.

* Break Aaaaaaah, ba ba ba ba ba ba baaaa.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaah.
Aaaaaaaaaaaah.
Siggidiggididundadun.
Split it, split it, split it.
Siggidiggideedundeedun.

* Repeat chorus

* Outro 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.
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!)
Let me hear it. (Yeah!)
Sock it to me! (Yeah!)
Let it all hang out! (Life)
