歌曲简介

作词：Billy Joel
作曲：Billy Joel
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 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"
?
La la la, de de da
La la, 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"?
?
Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da
?
Now Paul is a real estate novelist?
Who never had time for a wife?
And he's talkin' 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 drinkin' 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 comin' to see
To forget about life for a while?
And the piano, it 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?"?
?
Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, 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
