“Sultans Of Swing”

You get a shiver in the dark,

It's a raining in the park but meantime-

South of the river you stop and you hold everything

A band is blowing Dixie, double four time

You feel alright when you hear the music ring

Well now you step inside but you don't see too many faces

Coming in out of the rain they hear the jazz go down

Competition in other places

Uh but the horns they blowin’ that sound

Way on downsouth

Way on downsouth

Check out Guitar George, he knows-all the chords

Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make them cry or sing

They said an old guitar is all, he can afford

When he gets up under the lights to play his thing

And Harry doesn't mind, if he doesn't, make the scene

He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright

He can play the honky tonk like anything

Savin’ it up, for Friday night

With the Sultans

We're the Sultans of Swing

Then a crowd a young boys they're a foolin’ around in the corner

Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles

They don't give a damn about any trumpet playin’ band

It ain't what they call rock and roll

Then the Sultans

Yeah the Sultans they play creole, creole

And then the man he steps right up to the microphone

And says at last just as the time bell rings

Goodnight, now it's time to go home

And he makes it fast with one more thing

We are the Sultans

We are the Sultans of Swing

Sultani svinga

Dobijaš krhotinu u mraku

ali u međuvremenu kiši u parku

južno od rijeke ti zastaneš i držiš sve

bend je zasvirao Diksi dva dva četiri

osjećaš se dobro kada čuješ tu muziku kako zvuči

Dobro,sada stepuješ unutra ali ne vidiš mnogo lica

Odlaze van kiše jer  đez svira dolje

natječaj je na drugom mjestu

o,zvučnui lijevak je zahvatio ovu pjesmu

Putuje dole   na jug putuje dole  na jug

Ti  ne provjeravaš Gitar Đorđa on zna sve akorde

Misliš on je sami ritam i ne želi praviti žaliopojku ili poskočicu

Lijevoručna stara  gitara je sve što on sebi može priuštiti

kad se uzdigne iznad svjetla da svira ovu stvar

I Hari ne misli da pravi scene

on je dobio dnevni posao i čini se u redu

on može  svirati u svakom cantri baru

spašavajući mu petak naveče

sa Sultanima  Sultanima svinga

Obračun mladih ljudi njihove budalaštine okolo ugla

pijani i upakovani u najbolje smeđu ambalažu i đon za podijum

oni ne daju pet para za bilo kakvu svirku benda

To nije ono što oni zovu rok'n'rol

I Sultani,da Sultani sviraju kreolski kreolski

Tada čovjek koji je ukorak sa  mikrofonom

kaže sada je vrijeme za fajront

Laku noć vrijeme je da se pođe kući

i pravi oproštaj sa jedinom mogućom pjesmom

Mi smo sultani mi smo sultani Swinga (opijanja)
