String Man

John Phillips and Michelle Gilliam

I fell in love with the string man

Who played guitar in a rock and roll band

And every night I watch them play

But it happened at the matinee

How I squirmed when he bent those strings

And I screamed when he started to sing

The way he moved and looked so groovy

Well ya know he did something to me

String man string man string man string man

So I followed the string man

Who played guitar in a string band

And every night I watch them play

And they got better everyday

Pretty soon and what do ya think

What do you think

Everybody saying theye the biggest thing

The biggest thing

Hit records and making the scene

The scene

Sexy pictures in the fan magazines

String man string man string man string man

I strung along with the string man

He always called me his biggest fan

Though he was kind I should have known better

Than to think we always stay together

And then one night the show was wild and loud

And I saw a pretty girl out in the crowd

She waved at him and caught his eye

The way he looked at her it made me cry

String man

String man string man string man

String man string man string man

String man string man string man
