You get a shiver in the dark |
[00:14.980] |
It's been raining in the park but meantime |
[00:20.140] |
South of the river you stop and you hold everything |
[00:27.040] |
A band is blowing dixie double four time |
[00:32.920] |
You feel all right when you hear that music ring |
[00:42.570] |
You step inside but you don't see too many faces |
[00:48.270] |
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down |
[00:54.870] |
Too much competition too many other places |
[01:01.530] |
But not too many horns can make that sound |
[01:07.820] |
Way on downsouth way on downsouth london town |
[01:25.230] |
You check out guitar george he knows all the chords |
[01:33.240] |
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing |
[01:40.810] |
And an old guitar is all he can afford |
[01:45.560] |
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing |
[01:54.490] |
And harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene |
[02:00.670] |
He's got a daytime job he's doing alright |
[02:07.430] |
He can play honky tonk just like anything |
[02:12.980] |
Saving it up for friday night |
[02:19.830] |
With the sultans with the sultans of swing |
[02:37.510] |
And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner |
[02:44.240] |
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles |
[02:50.810] |
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band |
[02:57.130] |
It ain't what they call rock and roll |
[03:03.670] |
And the sultans played creole |
[04:05.110] |
And then the man he steps right up to the microphone |
[04:11.730] |
And says at last just as the time bell rings |
[04:18.140] |
'thank you goodnight now it's time to go home' |
[04:24.320] |
And he makes it fast with one more thing |
[04:30.510] |
'we are the sultans we are the sultans of swing' |
