Lyrics for Sultans Of Swing - Live At Hammersmith Odeon, London/1983

Yeah, get a shiver in the dark It's raining in the park, but meantime South of the river you stop and you hold everything, c'mon now A band is blowing Dixie, double four time Yeah, you feel alright when you hear the music ring Yeah Well, now you're stepping inside But you don't see too many faces Coming in out of the rain, they hear the jazz go down Competition, too many other places Yeah, but the horns they're blowin' that sound They're blowin' that Way on down south Way on down south London town Check it out guitar George Now he knows all them fancy chords He just rhythm Gonna make that guitar cry, or make it sing They said an old guitar is just all he can afford When he gets up under them coloured lights Gonna play that thing And Harry doesn't mind If he doesn't make that fancy scene Got a daytime job, he's doing quite alright, thank you very much Do the honky tonk just like anything Savin' it up, for Friday night With the Sultans We're the Sultans of Swing Said a crowd of boys They're just foolin' around in the corner Drunk and dressed in their baggies And their best King's Road Don't give a damn about any trumpet playin' band 'Cause it ain't what they callin' rock and roll The Sultans Oh yeah, the Sultans they play creole And the man he just steps right up to the microphone He says, "At last" just as the time bell rings "Thank you, goodnight, now it's time to go home" Then he makes it fast, just one more thing We are the Sultans Yeah, we are the Sultans of Swing
