    Dire Straits Sultans of Swing Lyrics
    [Verse 1]
    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 the music ring
    [Verse 2]
    Well, 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 blowin' that sound
    Way on down south
    Way on down south, London town
    [Verse 3]
    Check out guitar George
    He knows all the chords
    Mind, it's strictly rhythm
    He doesn't want to make it cry or sing
    Yes and an old guitar is all he can afford
    When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
    [Verse 4]
    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 the Honky Tonk like anything
    Saving it up for Friday night
    With the Sultans
    With the Sultans of Swing
    [Verse 5]
    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
    They don't give a damn
    About any trumpet playing band
    It ain't what they call Rock and Roll
    And the Sultans
    Yeah, the Sultans, they play Creole
    Creole
    [Guitar Solo]
    [Verse 6]
    And then the man
    He steps right up to the microphone
    And says at last
    Just as the time bell rings
    "Goodnight, now it's time to go home"
    Then he makes it fast
    With one more thing
    "We are the Sultans -
    We are the Sultans of Swing"
    [Guitar Solo]

    Wonderful track and performance. I believe the drummer was Terry Williams, for this event.
    P.S. I'll put my vote in for the live 'Telegraph Road', as I note some others have done. The studio version is one of my favourite songs, from any band (and I'm a die hard Rush fan!); but the live version is rather special. I only prefer the studio track, because I love to hear the somewhat more prominent and distinguishable lyrics, that's all.

    Mark is a brilliant singer and stellar guitar player, John and Hal brilliant. Terry on drums superb and Alan on main keyboards and piano is absolutely perfect.
    And watching Mark move around and grin at audience and fellow band members and how he will stand on left leg and lean back playing so relaxed. No effort required by these guys as the brilliant professionals.
    Terry on the drums sounds like a machine gun in the distance of a war movie.
    Check out there song Telegraph road from the same alchemy live concert. Even better than this.

Diolch! (Thanks!) Try this amazing version of this song played on a Japanese Gayageum - it's pretty cool and I think you'd like it ruclips.net/video/KFiyZB5ucgo/видео.html (also her version of Sabbath's Paranoid ruclips.net/video/7ys0oGXkLwo/видео.html )

    A long time has passed as I just remembered that I have this Alchemy Live on VHS. This is an excellent live performance and there are many songs to react to. Likely, the favorites among fans are Tunnel of Love and Telegraph Road, which are obviously epic, but so are most of the songs on that album ;)
    Also, if you have the change I'd highly suggest "Going Home" from On the Night Live album. Very beautiful and touching instrumental song. I'm not sure though, if you can find a video version of that anymore... On the Night has some of the best live performances of Dire Straits. Mark Knopfler is one of the greatest
