“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)
