- You get a shiver in the dark
黑暗中你冷不丁地打了個寒顫
It's raining in the park but meantime
這時公園裡正在下著綿綿細雨
South of the river you stop and you hold everything
突然你在河的南岸停下了腳步
A band is blowing Dixie double four time
酒吧傳出一首四四拍的爵士旋律
You feel alright when you hear that music ring
這旋律讓你頓時感到輕鬆愜意
You step inside but you don't see too many faces
你走進去卻發現觀眾寥寥無幾
Coming in out of the rain to hear the jazz go down
於是你決定聽聽音樂避一避雨
Too much competition too many other places
雖然爵士樂是隨處可見的東西
But not too many horns can make that sound
但像這麼優秀的樂隊可不多見
Way on downsouth way on downsouth London town
尤其是在這倫敦城的遙遠南方
You check out Guitar George he knows all the fancy chords
你看吉他手喬治，他知道所有的和弦
Mind he's strictly rhythm he doesn't want to make it cry or sing
他非常注重節奏，而不是花哨的技巧
And an old guitar is all he can afford
那把舊吉他就是他的全部家當
When he gets up under the lights to play his thing
他站在燈光下全神貫注地演奏
And Harry doesn 't mind if he doesn't make the scene
哈瑞卻並不在意自己是否能引人注目
He's got a daytime job he's doing alright
他在白天有一份不錯的正式工作
He can play honky tonk just like anything
他能把honky tonk風格玩得隨心所欲
Saving it up for Friday night
在每個星期的周五晚上
With the Sultans with the Sultans of Swing
都會來這兒和搖擺之王一起演奏
And a crowd of young boys they're fooling around in the corner
幾個年輕小子正在角落里胡鬧
Drunk and dressed in their best brown baggies and their platform soles
他們喝得爛醉打扮時髦
They don't give a damn about any trumpet playing band
他們對這種樂隊根本不屑一顧
It ain't what they call rock and roll
因為這並不是他們所謂的搖滾
And the Sultans played Creole
當樂隊演奏完Creole的樂曲
And the man he steps right up to the microphone
一個男人走到了麥克風前
And says at last just as the time bell rings
這時午夜的鐘聲恰好響起
'Thank you goodnight now it's time to go home'
謝謝各位，晚安，該回家了
And he makes it fast with one more thing
之後他又快速地補充了一句
'We are the Sultans of Swing'
我們是搖擺之王樂隊
