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 all right when you hear that music ring And now you step inside but you don't see too many faces Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down Competition in other places Ah but the horns they're blowing that sound Way on downsouth Way on downsouth, the London town Check out Guitar George He knows all the chords Mind he's strictly rhythm, he doesn't want to make it cry or sing An old guitar is all he can afford When he gets under the lights to play his thing And Harry doesn't mind if he doesn't make that scene He's got a daytime job he's doing alright He can play the honky-tonk like anything Saving it up for Friday night With The Sultans, with The Sultans Of Swing With The Sultans, with The Sultans Of Swing With The Sultans, with The Sultans Of Swing
