Dire Straits - Sultans of Swing şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Dire Straits

albüm: Sultans of Swing - the Very Best of Dire Straits


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 the rain to hear the jazz go down
Competition in other places
♪
Ah, but the horns, they 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
Yes and an 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 played creole

Creole
♪
And 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"
Then he makes it fast with one more thing
♪
"We are the Sultans
We are the Sultans of Swing"
