Sultans of Swing - Mark Knopfler

[00:12.650]You get a shiver in the dark
[00:14.390]It's raining in the park but meantime
[00:19.690]South of the river you stop and you hold everything
[00:26.730]A band is blowing Dixie double four time
[00:32.630]You feel alright when you hear that music ring
[00:41.490]You step inside but you don't see too many faces
[00:48.950]Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
[00:56.010]Too much competition too many other places
[01:02.190]But not too many horns can make that sound
[01:08.650]Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town
[01:26.470]You check out guitar George he knows all the chords
[01:33.650]Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
[01:40.820]And an old guitar is all he can afford
[01:46.940]When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
[01:56.620]And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
[02:02.820]He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
[02:09.750]He can play Honky Tonk just like anything
[02:16.130]Saving it up for Friday night
[02:22.900]With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing
[02:40.990]And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
[02:48.180]Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies
[02:49.890]And their platform soles
[02:54.860]They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
[03:01.280]It ain't what they call rock and roll
[03:08.150]And the Sultans
[03:12.230]Yeah the Sultans they played Creole
[03:18.760]Creole
[04:13.220]And the man he steps right up to the microphone
[04:19.950]And says at last just as the time bell rings
[04:27.030]Goodnight now it's time to go home
[04:32.930]And he makes it fast with one more thing
[04:39.730]We are the Sultans
[04:42.910]We are the Sultans of Swing
