Sultans of Swing(Originally Performed by Dire Straits)
You get a shiver in the dark
- You get a shiver in the dark
- It's raining in the park but meantime
- South of the river you stop and you hold everything
- A band is blowing Dixie double four time
- You feel alright when you hear that music ring
- Well now you step inside but you don't see too many faces
- Coming in out of rain to hear the jazz go down
- Competition in other places
- Oh but the horns they're blowing that sound
- Way on down south way on down south London town
- You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords
- Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
- Left handed old guitar is all he can afford
- When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
- And harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
- He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
- He can play the honky tonk like anything
- Saving it up for Friday night
- With the Sultans with the Sultans of swing
- And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
- Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
- They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
- It ain't what they call rock and roll
- And the Sultans yeah the Sultans they play Creole Creole baby
- Then the man he steps right up to the microphone
- And says at last just as the time bell rings
- Goodnight now it's time to go home
- And he makes it fast with one more thing
- We are the Sultans we are the Sultans of swing
