[Verse 1]
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin
He says, "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."
[Pre-Chorus]
La la la, di da da
La la, di da da da dum
[Chorus]
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
'Cause we're all in the mood for a melody
And you've got us feeling alright
[Verse 2]
Now John at the bar he's 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 runs away from his face
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
If I could get out of this place"
