The Mamas & The Papas - String Man

 
0
Copied!
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...

Biography

The Mamas and the Papas were a folk rock and psychedelic pop vocal group who recorded and performed on 1965–1968. They’re a defining force in the music scene of the counterculture of the ‘60s—the hippie movement.

Their sound was based on vocal harmonies arranged by John Phillips, the songwriter, musician, and leader of the group who adapted folk to the new beat style of the early sixties.

The Mamas & The Papas released a total of five studio albums and seventeen singles over a four-year period, six of which made the Billboard top ten, and have sold close to 40 million records worldwide. These hit singles were:

No. 4: “California Dreamin'” No. 1: “Monday, Monday” No. 5: “I Saw Her Again” No. 5: “Words of Love” No. 2: “Dedicated to the One I Love” No. 5: “Creeque Alley” The band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1998 for their contributions to the music industry. The band reunited briefly to record the album People Like Us in 1971, but had ceased touring and performing by that time.
