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
|
|
*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 feeling 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 some place that he'd rather be
|
He says
|
Bill. I believe this is killing me
|
As a 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
|
Now Paul is a real estate novelist who never had time for a wife
|
And he's talking with Davey 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
|
|
It's 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 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 a re you doing here
|
