Question 1 of 1
1. Question
Play the song once again and try to fill in the below lyrics from Piano Man by Billy Joel.
-
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular (crowd) (shuffles) in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Makin' 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."
La la la, di da da La la, di da da da dum
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 feelin' (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 someplace that he'd (rather) be
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
As the 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"
Oh, la la la, di da da La la, di da da da dum
Now Paul is a real estate (novelist)
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talkin' with Davy, 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 drinkin' alone
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 got us feeling (alright)
It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
And the manager gives me a smile
'Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' 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 are you doin' here?"
Oh, la la la, di da da La la, di da da da dum
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 got us feeling (alright)
