歌词
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
此时是星期六上午九点
The regular crowd shuffles in
人群如常曳足而进
There's an old man sitting next to me
有位老者坐在我身旁
Making love to his tonic and gin
品味着他的杜松子酒
He says, "Son, can you play me a memory
他说，“孩子，你能为我奏一曲回忆吗
I'm not really sure how it goes
我并不知道旋律
But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete
但它悲伤而甜蜜，我便知道它被谱成了
When I wore a younger man's clothes."
当我穿上更年轻的人的衣服时”
La la la, di da da
啦 啦 啦， 滴 嗒 嗒
La la, di da da da dum
啦 啦， 滴 嗒 嗒 嗒 嗒
Sing us a song, you're the piano man
为我们唱首歌吧，你就是那个钢琴家
Sing us a song tonight
在今夜，为我们高歌一曲吧
Cause we're all in the mood for a melody
因为我们都渴求一段诉出心声的旋律
And you've got us feeling alright
而你让我们触动
Now John at the bar is a friend of mine
此刻在酒吧的正是我的朋友John
He gets me my drinks for free
他免费为我拿酒
And he's quick with a joke or to light up your smoke
他总能幽默轻快地讲个笑话或熟练周到地为你点上烟
But there's someplace that he'd rather be
但他心之所向并不在此
He says, "Bill, I believe this is killing me."
他说，“Bill， 我相信这样的生活正在使我的人生变得毫无意义”
As the smile ran away from his face
说着这话，笑容渐渐从他脸上褪去
"Well I'm sure that I could be a movie star
“我很确定我能成为电影明星
If I could get out of this place"
如果我能从这个鬼地方出去”

It's a pretty good crowd for a Saturday
这群可爱的人使周六变得愉悦
And the manager gives me a smile
酒吧经理给了我一个微笑
‘Cause he knows that it's me they've been comin' to see

To forget about life for a while
来这里循世片刻
And the piano, it sounds like a carnival
钢琴悠扬，旋律起伏宛如一场狂欢
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?"
