Billy Joel - Piano Man

It's nine o'clock on a Saturday

  • It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
  • The regular crowd shuffles in
  • There's an old man sitting next to me
  • Makin' love to his tonic and gin
  • He says "Son can you play me a memory
  • I'm not really sure how it goes
  • But it's sad and it's sweet
  • And I knew it complete
  • When I wore a younger man's clothes "
  • Sing us a song you're the piano man
  • Sing us a song tonight
  • Well we're all in the mood for a melody
  • And you've got us feelin' alright
  • Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
  • He gets me my drinks for free
  • And he's quick with a joke
  • Or to light up your smoke
  • But there's someplace that he'd rather be
  • He says "Bill I believe this is killing me "
  • As the smile ran away from his face
  • "Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
  • If I could get out of this place"
  • Now Paul is a real estate novelist
  • Who never had time for a wife
  • And he's talkin' with Davy
  • Who's still in the Navy
  • And probably will be for life
  • And the waitress is practicing politics
  • As the businessmen slowly get stoned
  • Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
  • But it's better than drinkin' alone
  • Sing us a song you're the piano man
  • Sing us a song tonight
  • Well we're all in the mood for a melody
  • And you got us feeling alright
  • It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
  • And the manager gives me a smile
  • 'Cause he knows that it's me
  • They've been comin' to see
  • To forget about life for a while
  • And the piano it sounds like a carnival
  • And the microphone smells like a beer
  • And they sit at the bar
  • And put bread in my jar
  • And say "Man what are you doin' here "
  • Sing us a song you're the piano man
  • Sing us a song tonight
  • Well we're all in the mood for a melody
  • And you got us feeling alright
