The Rubberband Man - The Spinners

Hand me down my walkin' cane

Hand me down my hat

Hurry now and don't be late

'Cause we ain't got time to chat

You and me, we're goin' out

To catch the latest sound

Guaranteed to blow your mind

So high you won't come down

Hey, y'all, prepare yourself for the rubberband man

You've never heard a sound

Like the rubberband man

You're bound to lose control

When the rubberband starts to jam

Oh, this dude is outta sight

Everything he does

Seems to come out right

Once I went to hear them play

At a club outside of town

I was so surprised, I was hypnotized

By the sound this cat put down

When I saw this short, fat guy

Stretch a band between his toes

Hey, I laughed so hard

'Cause the man got down

When he finally reached his goal

Hey, y'all, prepare yourself for the rubberband man

You've never heard a sound

Like the rubberband man

You're bound to lose control

When the rubberband starts to jam

Got that rubber band

Up on his toes

And then he wriggled it up

All around his nose

Guaranteed to blow your mind

Playin' all that music, yet keepin' time

Where in the world did he learn that, oh, Lord

Lord, help him get away

Hey, y'all, prepare yourself for the rubberband man

You've never heard a sound

Like the rubberband man

You're bound to lose control

When the rubberband starts to jam

Rubberband man, rubberband man

How much of this stuff do he think we can stand?

So much rhythm, grace, and debonair for one man, Lord

And then he had the nerve to twiggle his left toe

Slip it through his knee, got the feeling in his head, y'all

Aw, come on, baby

Hey, y'all, prepare yourself for the rubberband man

You've never heard a sound

Like the rubberband man

You're bound to lose control

When the rubberband starts to jam

Rubberband man starts to jam

Moving up and down cross the land

Got the people all in his wake

Everything probably seems outta place

Just move it, just move it

Just move, move, move it

Just, rubberband, rubberband man

Just move it, just move it

Just move, move, move it

Just, rubberband, rubberband man

Get down

Oh, get down low

Ah ha
