[00:12.50]You get a shiver in the dark
[00:14.50]It's raining in the park but meantime
[00:19.50]South of the river you stop and you hold everything
[00:26.50]A band is blowing Dixie double four time
[00:32.50]You feel alright when you hear that music ring
[00:41.50]You step inside but you don't see too many faces
[00:48.50]Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
[00:55.50]Too much competition too many other places
[01:02.50]But not too many horns can make that sound
[01:08.50]Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town
[01:27.50]You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords
[01:33.50]Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
[01:40.50]And an old guitar is all he can afford
[01:47.50]When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
[01:56.50]And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make the scene
[02:03.50]He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
[02:10.50]He can play honky tonk just like anything
[02:16.50]Saving it up for Friday night
[02:23.50]With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing
[02:41.50]And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
[02:48.50]Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
[02:55.50]They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
[03:02.50]It ain't what they call rock and roll
[03:08.50]And the Sultans played Creole
[04:13.50]And the man he steps right up to the microphone
[04:19.50]And says at last just as the time bell rings
[04:26.50]'Thank you goodnight now it's time to go home'
[04:32.50]And he makes it fast with one more thing
[04:39.50]'We are the Sultans of Swing'
