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 were 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 never heard a sound Like the Rubberband man You're bound to lose control When the Rubberband starts to jam
Oh, Lord, 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's puttin' 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 never heard a sound Like the Rubberband man You're bound to lose control When the Rubberband starts to jam
Got that Rubberband Up on his toes And then he wriggled it up All around his nose
(Doo, doo, doo) Guaranteed to blow your mind (Doo, doo, doo) Playin' all that music, yet keepin' time (Doo, doo, doo) 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 never heard a sound Like the Rubberband man You're bound to lose control When the rubber band starts to jam
How much of this stuff, do he think we can stand So much rhythm, grace and debonair from one man, Lord And then he had nerve to wiggle his left toe To his knee, got the feelin' in his head, y'all Ah, come on, baby
Hey, y'all prepare yourself For the Rubberband man You 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 Movin' up and down across the land Got people all in his ways Everything about him seems out of place
Just a movin', just a movin' Just a move-move-movin' Just a Rubberband, Rubberband man Just a movin', just a movin' Just a move-move-movin' Just a Rubberband Rubberband man Get down Oh, get down lover Uh-huh
Where are the smiles, the laughter and fun' Something is bugging almost every one. The pressure and fear, can turn very clear. There must be some way to escape.
This mean ol' world can get on your nerves. So many headaches that you don't deserve. So if you don't mind, I'd like to prescribe, An old remedy, for you, For you and Me.
[Chorus] Now that we're together, We're gonna sing and try to make it better. Oh, oh, oh, oh, Now that we're together, Forget your cares and think about it later.
Singing a song I good for the heart. Once you get started, it's quite hard to stop. You're such a great crowd. Why don't you sing loud. Oh sing out for me, for you, For you and Me.
[Chorus]
Now that we're together, Oh, oh, oh, oh,
Now that we're together, Oh, oh, oh, oh,
Now that we're together, Oh, oh, oh, oh, Now that we're here. Now that we're together, Oh, oh, oh, oh, Now that we're together, Oh, oh, oh, oh, Now that we're together, Oh, oh, oh, oh, Now that we're here. Now that we're here.
(oh, baby) Dreams are closer than the skin you wear Love gleaming eyes and hair Ever close, but, oh, so far away Just as soon as you think that you're there Sketches drawn right out of fairy tales Jar of happiness for sale Slumber dreams are mere reality All the best things i think you are to me
Refrain: If you can't be in love (baby) Then just be what you are Dreams are not far away If you can't be in love (baby) Then just be what you are Dreams are not far ...
Kiss the truth away and then you sigh Over love you think is just a house of joy How can you find your joy with no home
If you can't be in love (baby) Then just be what you are Dreams are not far away
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
[Chorus] Hey ya'll 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
[Chorus]
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
[Chorus]
Rubberband man Rubberband man How much of this stuff do he think we can stand? So much rhythym, grace, and debonair for one man ??? ???
[Chorus]
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 Rubberband Man Just move it, just move it Just move move move it Rubberband man Get down, get down low
Be my love, for no one else can end this yearning This need that you and you alone create Just fill my arms the way you've filled my dreams The dreams that you inspire with ev'ry sweet desire Be my love, and with your kisses set me burning One kiss is all I need to seal my fate And hand in hand, we'll find love's promised land There'll be no one but you, for me eternally If you will be my love
Be my love, for no one else can end this yearning This need that you and you alone create Just fill my arms the way you've filled my dreams The dreams that you inspire with ev'ry sweet desire Be my love, and with your kisses set me burning One kiss is all I need to seal my fate And hand in hand, we'll find love's promised land There'll be no one but you, for me eternally
