Giant Sand – Man On a String Lyrics

Rock

Nothing but a cold floor, under my feet
Outside, the wind turns to sleet
Nothing but a ghost knocking on my door
All because you don't send me love, anymore

Send me no more love
It would only stand to make me sick
Send me love no more
Well, I'd only get back in what I got out
Way too quick

One old man who would like to talk a good game
Words sweet as syrup pouring outta him like rain
One fateless night fooling around down town
When that girl came in, you could hear the sap hit the ground

And I know a girl with a man on a string
She loves to see how much he could take
With a come on and a little heartache
She swore she didn't need anymore
Then all she could take

Nothing but a cold floor under my feet
Outside, the wind blows bitterly
Nothing but a ghost knocking on my door
All because you don't send me love, anymore

Yeah, I know a man with a girl on a string
Likes to see how much she can take
With a come on and a little heartbreak
But she swore she didn't need any more
Than all she could take
