The Rubberband Man

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 these cats 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 it finally reached his nose

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, uh

Up on his toes

And then he wriggled it up

All around his nose

(Du du du du du du du du)

Guaranteed to blow your mind

(Du du du du du du du du)

Playin' all that music, yet keepin' time

(Du du du du du du du du)

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

(Du du du du du)

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

Choo, choo, choo, choo, choo, uh

Choo, choo, choo, choo, choo, choo

Choo, choo, choo, choo, choo, uh

Rubberband man, rubberband man, uh

(Du du du du du du du du)

Du du du du

(Du du du du du du du du)

Watch him, keep movin', just movin'

Got em groovin' on the corner, it's burnin' up, y'all

(Du du du du du du du du)

Ohooohooohhh

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

Ay, ay, ay, ay

Boy that Rubberband man's a doozy

Move so quick, uh, he make me woozy

And then he stopped to show down

He wiggle it up, he wiggle it down, uh

Got speed to move it

Get rubberband off the ground, uh

He lifted it well high

In the sky, y'all

And then he

Du du du du du

Oh, get with it, y'all

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

Choo, choo, choo, choo, choo, uh

Turn it up, turn it up

Choo, choo, choo, choo, choo, uh

Rubberband man, rubberband man, uh

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

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 (won't you prepare yourself, hear me) for the rubberband man

You've never heard a sound (never heard a sound)

Like the rubberband man (Aw, he's the man)

You're bound to lose control (and he likes to jam)

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

Oh, he can jam, y'all

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

You've never heard a sound (never heard a sound)

Like the rubberband man (never felt the groove)

You're bound to lose control (take a seat and move)

When the rubberband starts to jam

Ohwee

What's he doin' to me?

Rhythms I ain't felt before

Just groovin' up loudly

Gotta move, I gotta groove

Rubberband man

Achoo, achoo, achoo

The way he twiddles his toes with the band

How did he do it, y'all?

Hey, y'all, (I don't know) prepare yourself for the rubberband man (Aw, prepare yourself, y'all)

You've never heard a sound (Can see his show)

Like the rubberband man

You're bound to lose control (Throwing his hat)

When the rubberband starts to jam

Ready to jam

Do my Rubberband

Ready to jam

I gotta do my Rubberband

A-twang, a-twang, a-twang, a-twang

Lord, have mercy

A-twang, a-twang, a-twang, a-twang

Just strike me in my bones

A-twang, a-twang, a-twang, a-twang

Maked a move, y'all

I kinda groove when I did

Hey, y'all, prepare yourself for the rubberband man (ya gotta believe me)

You've never heard a sound (he's a [?] cat )

Like the rubberband man (he moves and grooves)

You're bound to lose control ([?])

When the rubberband starts to jam

He's a big fat man that moves me good

Everybody oughta knock on wood

When you see the man do his stuff

I done see enough

Movin' his shoulders

Got his head movin' side to side

Dig him crimpin' with a [?]

Oh, he's the man, rubberband man
