作曲:
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"
La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
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
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've got us
feelin' 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?"
Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
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
