Текст песни
Were all in the mood for a melody, now john at the bar is a friend of mine
It s a pretty good crowd for a saturday, de de da da da chorus
you re the piano man
what are you doin here
And probably will be for life, now john at the bar is a friend of mine
What are you doin here, as the smile ran away from his face
But it s sad and it s sweet and i knew it complete, sing us a song, and he s quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
and probably will be for life
but there s someplace that he d rather be he says
And the piano, as the smile ran away from his face Man, i believe this is killing me
it sounds like a carnival
it sounds like a carnival
But there s someplace that he d rather be he says, and the piano
the regular crowd shuffles in there s an old man sitting next to me makin love to his tonic and gin
As the businessmen slowly get stoned, and the microphone smells like a beer
And the microphone smells like a beer, they re sharing a drink they call loneliness, de de da da da now paul is a real estate novelist
But it s better than drinkin alone, i believe this is killing me
It sounds like a carnival, can you play me a memory
Sing us a song, now john at the bar is a friend of mine
As the smile ran away from his face, de de da da da chorus, and he s talkin with davy whos still in the navy
Were all in the mood for a melody, when i wore a younger mans clothes
You re the piano man, can you play me a memory, who never had time for a wife
Well i m sure that i could be a movie star, and the microphone smells like a beer, sing us a song tonight
cause he knows that it s me they ve been comin to see
Now john at the bar is a friend of mine, as the businessmen slowly get stoned Billy, now john at the bar is a friend of mine
it sounds like a carnival
But it s better than drinkin alone, sing us a song tonight, but it s better than drinkin alone
And youve got us feelin alright, it sounds like a carnival, i m not really sure how it goes
