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
