String Man Lyrics


I fell in love with the string man
Who played guitar in a rock n' roll band
And every night I'd watch them play
But it happened at the matineeHow 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 meString man
String man
String manSo I followed the string man
Who played guitar in a string band
And every night I watch them play
And they got better everydayPretty soon and what do ya think
Everybody's saying, they'e the biggest thing
Hit records and making the scene
Sexy pictures in the fan magazinesString man
String man
String manI 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 togetherAnd 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 cryString man
String man
String man
...

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

The Mamas & the Papas (credited as The Mama's and the Papa's on the debut album cover) were a leading vocal group of the 60s from New York. The group recorded and performed from 1965 to 1968, releasing five albums and charting ten hit singles that hold up as well today as they did back in the sunshine era. While spending relatively a short time in the realm of popular music, some group members have pointed to their short time in the spotlight as a reason why they still have loyal fans today.
