Sultans Of Swing by Dire Straits

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 (1)________ is blowing dixie double four time
You feel alright when you hear (2)________ music ring

Well now you step (3)____________ but you don't see too many faces
Coming in out of the (4)________ to hear the (5)________ go down
Competition in other places
Ah but the horns, (6)________ blowin' that sound
Way on (7)________ south
Way on down south, London town

Check out (8)____________ George, he knows all the chords

Yes and an old guitar is all he can afford
When he gets up (9)__________ the (10)____________ to (11)________ his thing

And Harry doesn't (12)________ if he doesn't (13)________ the scene
He's got a daytime job, he's doing alright
He can play the honky (14)________ like anything
Saving it up for Friday night
With the Sultans
We're the Sultans of Swing

Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and (17)__________ platform soles
They don't (18)________ a damn about any trumpet (19)______________ band

And (21)________ the man, he steps right up to the microphone
And says at (22)________ just as the time bell rings
Goodnight, now it's time to go home
Then he makes it fast with one (23)________ thing
We are the Sultans
We are the Sultans of Swing
