Joel, Billy - Piano Man Lyrics
It's nine o'clock on a Saturday
The regular crowd shuffles in
There's an old man sitting next to me
Making love to his tonic and gin
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."
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 feeling alright
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 a 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."
Now Paul is a real estate novelist
Who never had time for a wife
And he's talking 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 drinking 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've 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 coming 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 doing here?"
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 feeling alright

Sadly Billy Joel is now completely BALD and if it can happen to him it can happen to anyone. I was completely BALD and CURED my HAIR LOSS with this totally NEW and ALTERNATIVE method. If you are tired of the OLD and FAILED ideas of the mainstream medical profession I strongly urge you to go to www.BornAgainHair.com to learn about this cure which for the FIRST time in history explains with simple LOGIC and plain COMMON SENSE THAT the real cause of HAIR LOSS is a reduction in the BLOOD flow to the hair follicles. It teaches you how to treat it using NO DRUGS, NO LOTIONS and NO SURGERY.
*I’m going to Kermit suicide*
Put this on my funeral
Damn these suicide animals are out of control
노래 들을때마다 감동이다...
첫 소절 들을때 진짜 금요일 9시 같은 느낌이 듬
My teacher played this on the guitar
He is now the guitar man
A rust player lead me here.
......Sad :c
WOW!!!TY:)
Always if i listen again and watch the comments, they get more likes
I’m such a big family of Billy Joel. I have my mom to thank for it. He is such a talented man.
Where's my cheese and piano
back when we could smoke in bars...I remember those days. long long ago,.
"After a long day... Nay. After a long road, I look back. Was the work worth it? What has it become-What have I become?
...Perhaps now...Maybe right now simply doesn't mean to work, but rather what it becomes after it is done...
Maybe instead, the moment tells me to see the work that got me here. What I've done with life. Work is work, but more importantly, work is done. For now... If that's so, then nothing quite matters at this point.
Nothing but a song for a long road of work.
...All done...
Nothing important to worry about now then. That's for tomorrow. Perhaps for when the fat lady sings..."
I don't know if it makes me feel better or worse but I love this song
This is how many people who thinks that Director Dexter Fletcher should direct and Pitch Perfect and Netflix original series The Politician Star Ben Platt should play Billy Joel while the singer produce or executive produce the biographical drama musical film about his life and career called “PianoMan”. Distributed by Sony/ Columbia 🗽 Pictures.
👇🏽
He is
legend of legend
Billy Joel: It’s nine o’ clock on a Saturday, regular crowd shuffles in...
Elton John: ITS SEVEN O’ CLOCK AND I WANNA ROCK! SATURDAY NIGHTS ALRIGHT!
great memes aside, i love the song
Wait
This guy sang a song about singing
DOES HE KNOWS HE IS EVEN SINGING!?
I’m 37 and found out this isn’t by Elton John yesterday
0:08 when you spend 2 hours finding your phone but you were sitting on it
Thanks, that's gonna happen in my head whenever this occurs for the rest of my days
The 0:03 to 0:16 part summs my life in some way :v.
He smokes during his music video😂
Such talent ... he is my piano man still 2020.
One great album after another .....
That moment when the song is named "piano man" but the harmonica gets all the fame
* 0:08 starts playing *
Billy looks like Tackleberry from the Police Academy movies.
I automatically subscribed and liked when I heard there was hermonica instead of a piano
I had no idea what the name of that song was so I literally just deadbutt searched "that one harmonica song people use in their memes" and it brought me here.
I love YouTube's algorithm.
This song is about Misery love company 2020 Great Song !
It’s fucking sunday
The harmonicas solo made me cry
you lost your phone
0:07
tu perd ton portable
It's 2020, and Davy is still in the navy
if this is 1973 that means hes 24 here but he looks like hes in his 30s
"songs that excite the white folk" lol
*CARAY QUE RECUERDOS Y NO ME CANSO DE ESCUCHARLA HOY 12 DE ENERO DEL 2020*
What a iconic song man! Thanks for your music! 🙏😁
4:22 that's what I did after I got drafted
The bar is the bar you imagine where your crush and you go. You sing a song and everyone joins in. But then you think of the bar in Star Wars.
Me and the boys sang this song as we browsed through the decades old memes.
I always come back to this song. Living in a city is tough. Missing my simple life where i growed up but always bump me up that i choose to live like this.
Stand user: billy joel
stand: piano man
stand power: able to describe things making them real
*note he needs to make this into a song, the things he describes become stronger the more tune is involved. There are multiple piano-men in his family, none are as strong as his though.
Still g in 2020
This was my late husband's favorite to sing at karaoke. He did Billy Joel justice. I miss him.
In times of crisis, in times of depression, in times of need, in times of joy, in times of happiness, it stays and is a good song.
Watchmen vibes...
This one reminds me of a sad song but i just can't remember which one
Now I want to learn to play harmonica

Who threw something at John and what was it
When you're so gangster you say "Bread" instead of "Dough"
Play this at my funeral or else I won’t show up
I’m not joking
Stolen comment. Be original.
Sry it is to good
Still a classic!
What Billy Joel would say if he knows his song was going to be a meme? I also don't know if he's dead or alive, assuming to the design and quality of the video, but he has good music tho.
0:08 yeah
Hard to believe that this Billy Joel classic has survived for 47 years - Congrats Billy my friend!
thx for reminding me my life sucks
❤❤❤❤
This song always brings a smile to my face
Nathan Sakulich really it always makes me have a depressing existential crisis before scrolling through comments to distract myself
@Maxwell Austin ... Then y do u listen to it
@Nathan Sakulich well it makes me sad as well, but it's good to be sad sometimes because if you don't "release" it from time to time you are carrying this burden with you all the time. I know it sounds weird, but feeling bad makes me feel better sometimes.
One tree hill brought me here
I wish I could understand the deep meaning of this song,but darn.its still fire.
Voices of crowd is one of the important instrument of this song. When billy sing it with crowd together, it really touch my heart.
be me, listen this while waiting america to strike again to iran
The haramonica was a classic on video clip memes XD this song is good for me sucking in life.... seriously I have friends but no one talks to me T_T life actually sucks
I'm here because of Vinny's Untitled Goose Game video made me want to hear this song
I did karaoke to this song at a party the other night and literally got chills when the girls joined in ❤️
I don’t understand why there are 25K dislikes
Meu vô morreu

Nicely done
今天才接触到 Billy Joel,才知道 Piano Man 是他唱的,真好听,谢谢!
这首歌儿下的评论,好有意思。
항상 들을때마다 가슴 설레이고 언젠가 제가 꼭 피아노와 함께 노래하고 싶은 곡입니다.
