Piano Man - Various Artists
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 melody?
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
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
