Who played guitar in a rock and roll band
And every night I've 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've watch them play
And they got better everyday
Pretty soon, and what do ya think (what do you think)
Everybody's saying they've 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've 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...
I fell in love with the string man Who played guitar in a rock and roll band And every night I've 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've watch them play And they got better everyday Pretty soon, and what do ya think (what do you think) Everybody's saying they've 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've 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... Explain Request ×
