It's nine o'clock on a Saturday |
| [00:33.12] |
|
| [00:35.30] |
The regular crowd shuffles in |
| [00:37.17] |
|
| [00:38.05] |
There's an old man sitting next to me |
| [00:41.56] |
|
| [00:42.20] |
Makin' love to his tonic and gin |
| [00:45.04] |
|
| [00:48.19] |
He says, "Son, can you play me a memory |
| [00:51.31] |
|
| [00:52.30] |
I'm not really sure how it goes |
| [00:55.36] |
|
| [00:56.36] |
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete |
| [00:59.79] |
|
| [01:00.42] |
When I wore a younger man's clothes." |
| [01:03.60] |
|
| [01:04.72] |
la la la, di da da |
| [01:07.78] |
|
| [01:09.21] |
La la, di di da da dum |
| [01:13.65] |
|
| [01:16.95] |
Sing us a song, you're the piano man |
| [01:20.01] |
|
| [01:20.90] |
Sing us a song tonight |
| [01:23.40] |
|
| [01:24.52] |
Well, we're all in the mood for a melody |
| [01:27.45] |
|
| [01:28.81] |
And you've got us feelin' all right |
| [01:31.45] |
|
| [01:36.66] |
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine |
| [01:40.10] |
|
| [01:40.92] |
He gets me my drinks for free |
| [01:43.68] |
|
| [01:44.67] |
And he's quick with a joke and he'll light up your smoke |
| [01:48.54] |
But there's some place that he'd rather be |
| [01:51.98] |
|
| [01:54.66] |
And the waitress is practicing politics |
| [01:57.71] |
|
| [01:58.59] |
As the businessman slowly gets stoned |
| [02:01.68] |
|
| [02:02.55] |
Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness |
| [02:05.86] |
|
| [02:06.67] |
But it's better than drinkin' alone |
| [02:09.17] |
|
| [02:19.09] |
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival |
| [02:21.96] |
|
| [02:22.65] |
And the microphone smells like a beer |
| [02:26.53] |
And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar |
| [02:30.73] |
And say, "Man, what are you doin' here?" |
| [02:33.79] |
|
| [02:34.61] |
Oh, la la la, di da da |
| [02:38.43] |
|
| [02:39.24] |
La la, di da da da dum |
| [02:44.04] |
|
| [02:47.24] |
sing us a song you're the piano man |
| [02:50.18] |
|
| [02:51.06] |
sing us a song tonight |
| [02:53.68] |
|
| [02:54.57] |
well we're all in the mood for a melody |
| [02:57.87] |
|
| [02:58.64] |
and you got us all feeling alright |
