[00:00.00]Piano Man - Billy Joel
[00:10.44]Lyrics by:Billy Joel
[00:20.89]Composed by:Billy Joel
[00:31.34]It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
[00:36.37]The regular crowd shuffles in
[00:39.43]There's an old man sittin' next to me
[00:43.53]Makin' love to his tonic and gin
[00:57.93]He says "Son can you play me a memory
[01:01.84]I'm not really sure how it goes
[01:06.09]But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
[01:10.51]When I wore a younger man's clothes"
[01:14.36]La la-la di-dee-da
[01:19.62]La-la di-dee-da da-dum
[01:26.98]Sing us a song you're the piano man
[01:30.96]Sing us a song tonight
[01:34.71]Well we're all in the mood for a melody
[01:38.55]And you've got us feeling alright
[01:57.07]Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
[02:01.33]He gets me my drinks for free
[02:05.21]And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
[02:08.71]But there's someplace that he'd rather be
[02:14.68]He says "Bill I believe this is killing me"
[02:19.03]As the smile ran away from his face
[02:23.15]"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
[02:27.14]If I could get out of this place"
[02:31.13]Oh la la-la di-dee-da
[02:36.25]La-la di-dee-da da-dum
[02:43.63]Now Paul is a real estate novelist
[02:47.85]Who never had time for a wife
[02:51.68]And he's talkin' with Davy who's still in the Navy
[02:55.73]And probably will be for life
[03:09.55]And the waitress is practicing politics
[03:13.61]As the businessmen slowly get stoned
[03:17.62]Yes they're sharing a drink they call loneliness
[03:21.78]But it's better than drinkin' alone
[03:41.91]Sing us a song you're the piano man
[03:45.86]Sing us a song tonight
[03:49.42]Well we're all in the mood for a melody
[03:53.41]And you've got us feeling alright
[04:11.71]It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
[04:15.84]And the manager gives me a smile
[04:19.65]'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see
[04:23.65]To forget about life for a while
[04:29.27]And the piano it sounds like a carnival
[04:33.33]And the microphone smells like a beer
[04:37.18]And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar
[04:41.48]And say "Man what are you doin' here"
[04:44.96]Oh la la-la di-dee-da
[04:50.30]La-la di-dee-da da-dum
[04:57.66]Sing us a song you're the piano man
[05:01.62]Sing us a song tonight
[05:04.94]Well we're all in the mood for a melody
[05:09.16]And you've got us feeling alright
