String Man

Written by：John Phillips/Michelle Phillips

I fell in love with the string man

Who played guitar

In a rock and roll band

And every night I'd 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'd watch them play

And they got better everyday

Pretty soon and what do ya think

Everybody's saying

They're 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'd 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
