[00:13.820]You get a shiver in the dark
[00:14.980]It's been raining in the park but meantime
[00:20.140]South of the river you stop and you hold everything
[00:27.040]A band is blowing dixie double four time
[00:32.920]You feel all right when you hear that music ring
[00:42.570]You step inside but you don't see too many faces
[00:48.270]Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
[00:54.870]Too much competition too many other places
[01:01.530]But not too many horns can make that sound
[01:07.820]Way on downsouth way on downsouth london town
[01:25.230]You check out guitar george he knows all the chords
[01:33.240]Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
[01:40.810]And an old guitar is all he can afford
[01:45.560]When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
[01:54.490]And harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
[02:00.670]He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
[02:07.430]He can play honky tonk just like anything
[02:12.980]Saving it up for friday night
[02:19.830]With the sultans with the sultans of swing
[02:37.510]And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
[02:44.240]Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
[02:50.810]They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
[02:57.130]It ain't what they call rock and roll
[03:03.670]And the sultans played creole
[04:05.110]And then the man he steps right up to the microphone
[04:11.730]And says at last just as the time bell rings
[04:18.140]'thank you goodnight now it's time to go home'
[04:24.320]And he makes it fast with one more thing
[04:30.510]'we are the sultans we are the sultans of swing'
