Вступление:
Куплет 1:
It's
nine o'clock on a
Saturday
The
regular crowd shuffles
in
There's an
old man
sitting next to
me
Making
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.”
Проигрыш:
La la, di di
da da
dum
Припев:
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 all
feeling alright
Куплет 2:
Now
John at the
bar is a
friend of
mine
He
gets me my
drinks for
free
And he's
quick with a
joke and he'll
light up your
smoke
But there's
some place that
he'd rather
be
He says,
“Bill, I
believe this is
killing me.”
As the
smile ran
away from his
face
“Well I'm
sure that I
could be a
movie star
If
I could get
out of this
place”

La la, di di

Куплет 3:
Now
Paul is a
real estate
novelist
Who
never had
time for a
wife
And he's
talking with
Davy, who's
still in the
Navy
And
probably will
be for
life
And the
waitress is
practicing politics
As the
businessman slowly gets
stoned
Yes, they're
sharing a
drink they call
loneliness
But it's
better than
drinking alone
Припев:
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 all
feeling alright
Куплет 4:
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
coming 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 doing
here?”
