Sultans Of Swing
作词 : Mark Knopfler
作曲 : Mark Knopfler
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 down south way on down south 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 now
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 and the Sultans played Creole
Creole
And 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"
And he makes it fast with one more thing
"We are the Sultans “
we are the sultans of Swing"
译者注：歌词中的George和Harry，George Young是AC/DC乐队 Angus Young's的哥哥，
和Harry Vanda一起同为Easybeats乐队成员，两人还曾经帮助AC/DC作品的录制。
Dixie即dixie standrads，是一种特点是强调反拍和快速律动的南部风格，标准迪克西风格的小号大师Louis Armstrong路易斯·阿姆斯特朗，
Honky tonk大体上是指在早年盛行于酒吧间的一种美国南部乡村音乐
Creole是一支乐队—King Oliver's Creole Jazz Band，
金·奥利弗的克里特爵士乐团。路易斯·阿姆斯特朗恰恰就是这支乐团的成员，
而乐团灵魂金·奥利弗正是阿姆斯特朗的老师。）
