[00:14.22] You get a shiver in the dark

[00:16.08] It's a raining in the park but meantime-

[00:21.70] South of the river you stop and you hold everything

[00:28.33] A band is blowing Dixie, double four time

[00:34.20] You feel alright when you hear the music ring

[00:43.00] Well now you step inside but you don't see too many faces

[00:49.94] Coming in out of the rain they hear the jazz go down

[00:56.61] Competition in other places

[01:02.72] Uh but the horns they blowin' that sound

[01:09.94] Way on down south

[01:13.12] Way on down south

[01:14.99] London town

[01:26.97] You check out guitar George, he knows-all the chords

[01:34.14] Mind, it's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing

[01:40.53] They said an old guitar is all, he can afford

[01:46.67] When he gets up under the lights to play his thing

[01:56.52] And Harry doesn't mind, if he doesn't, make the scene

[02:02.92] He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright

[02:09.32] He can play the Honky Tonk like anything

[02:15.16] Savin' it up, for Friday night

[02:22.07] With the Sultans

[02:25.27] We're the Sultans of Swing

[02:39.10] Then a crowd a young boys they're a foolin' around in the corner

[02:46.88] Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles

[02:53.03] They don't give a damn about any trumpet playin' band

[02:59.47] It ain't what they call Rock and Roll

[03:06.12] And the Sultans

[03:09.30] Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole

[04:09.00] Creole

[04:09.27] And then the man he steps right up to the microphone

[04:14.33] And says at last just as the time bell rings

[04:20.45] "Goodnight, now it's time to go home"

[04:26.85] Then he makes it fast with one more thing

[04:33.22] "We are the Sultans

[04:36.44] We are the Sultans of Swing"
