Who's gonna play this old piano after I'm not here Who's gonna sing these sad songs to you cause your eyes to fill with tears Who's gonna keep these ivories talking like Jerry's doing now Who's gonna play this old piano after my last bow When that final curtain falls and someday Lord it will Who's take my place on that stage when everything is hushed and still Who's gonna touch these keys with feelin' really get to you Who's gonna play this old piano when my time is through [ horns ] We've laughed and you know we've cried together done a million shows So I kinda think like I have every single right to know Who's gonna keep this music going who will carry on Who's gonna play this old piano after the Killer's gone
