Dire Straits – Sultans of Swing | NOT LIVE !!! | CD version !!! | Original w/ lyrics in description

I love this song! Especially when i’m drunk on beer! LYRICS: You get a shiver in the dark It’s raining in the park but meantime South of the river you stop and you hold everything A band is blowing Dixie double four time You feel alright when you hear that music ring You step inside but you don’t see too many faces Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down Too much competition too many other places But not too many horns can make that sound Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town You check out Guitar George he knows all the chords Mind he’s strictly rhythm he doesn’t want to make it cry or sing And an old guitar is all he can afford When he gets up under the lights to play his thing And Harry doesn’t mind if he doesn’t make the scene He’s got a daytime job he’s doing alright He can play honky tonk just like anything Saving it up for Friday night With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing And a crowd of young boys they’re fooling around in the corner Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles The don’t give a damn about any trumpet playing band It ain’t what they call rock and roll And the Sultans played Creole And then the man he steps right up to the microphone And says at last just as the time bell rings ‘Thank you goodnight now it’s time to go home’ and he makes it fast whith one more thing ‘We are the Sultans of Swing’

    Yes i know, i feel the same. But it’s when music like this has been put aside by the music we hear today, hence the example i put ‘stupid hoe’ I don’t see the reason why I get so much hate for that comment?

    Your comment is just as pleasing to read as this song is pleasing to listen! Thank you, man.

    it’s this sort of thinking that kills creativity. idolizing past works and putting them on a plane above what “your generation” is capable of matching or even surpassing a mistake that cannot be corrected once it has been engrained. please understand this. as much of a master piece as this is, there is always room for improvement. the way i see it, the oldies are the muse, not the alpha and omega of musical genius.talented people are still out there, man. you just have to know where to look.

    Learning this song for my guitar class final in school. About ready to preform this this to my class next week. Oh I can’t wait to show every one a true classic while everyone else is playing bad modern pop music.
