Just Go With It movie - Piano Man lyrics

rate me

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 say, Son can you play me a memory

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

[Chorus]

Da da da de de da

da da 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

He says Bill, I believe this is killing me

As the smile ran away from his face

Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star

If I could get out of this place

Da da da de de da

da da de de da da da

Now Paul is a real estate novelist

Who never had time for a wife

And he's talking with Davy who's still in the navy

And probably will be for life

And the waitress is practicing politics

As the businessmen slowly get stoned

Yes, they're sharing a drink they call loneliness

But it's better than drinking alone

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.

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday,

And the manager gives me a smile

'Cause he knows that it's me they've been coming to see

To forget about life for awhile.

And the piano sounds like a carnival

And the microphone smells like a beer

And they sit at the bar and put bread in my jar

And say "Man, what are you doin' here?"

Da da da de de da

da da 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.
