You get a shiver in the dark |
[00:14.500] |
It's raining in the park but meantime |
[00:19.500] |
South of the river you stop and you hold everything |
[00:26.500] |
A band is blowing Dixie double four time |
[00:32.500] |
You feel alright when you hear that music ring |
[00:41.500] |
You step inside but you don't see too many faces |
[00:48.500] |
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down |
[00:55.500] |
Too much competition too many other places |
[01:02.500] |
But not too many horns can make that sound |
[01:08.500] |
Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town |
[01:27.500] |
You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords |
[01:33.500] |
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing |
[01:40.500] |
And an old guitar is all he can afford |
[01:47.500] |
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing |
[01:56.500] |
And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene |
[02:03.500] |
He's got a daytime job he's doing alright |
[02:10.500] |
He can play honky tonk just like anything |
[02:16.500] |
Saving it up for Friday night |
[02:23.500] |
With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing |
[02:41.500] |
And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner |
[02:48.500] |
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles |
[02:55.500] |
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band |
[03:02.500] |
It ain't what they call rock and roll |
[03:08.500] |
And the Sultans played Creole |
[04:13.500] |
And the man he steps right up to the microphone |
[04:19.500] |
And says at last just as the time bell rings |
[04:26.500] |
'Thank you goodnight now it's time to go home' |
[04:32.500] |
And he makes it fast with one more thing |
[04:39.500] |
'We are the Sultans of Swing' |
