Please Don t Drag That String Around:Elvis Presley.
B-side of Devil in Disguise which hit #3 on Hot 100
on RCA Records. B-side DNC.
INTRO:
#1.
You like to keep me dangling on a string..
cause you know without you, my life don t
mean a thing.
CHORUS:
So, I beg you..please don t drag that string
around, oh, no.
Well, what if it should break..oh, tell me,
what would I do then?
Keep that string up off the ground, oh, yeah..
remember my heart is tied to the other end.
#2.
Yes, I m your puppet, my heart is in your hand..
one twist on the wrist and I jump to your command.
CHORUS:
So, I beg you..please don t drag that string
around, oh, no.
Well, what if it should break..oh, tell me,
what would I do then?
Keep that string up off the ground, oh, yeah..
remember my heart is tied to the other end.
#3.
I feel inside me, as sure as anything..one day
I ll mean more to you, than a puppet on a string.
CHORUS:
So, I beg you..please don t drag that string
around, oh, no.
Well, what if it should break..oh, tell me,
what would I do then?
Keep that string up off the ground, oh, yeah..
remember my heart is tied to the other end.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
