Jimmy Buffett - Something So Feminine About a Mandolin текст песни

By: jimmy buffett, jane slagsvol

1975

It was late in the evenin, just a few of us pickin

But the lady she played so easy and fine

And the chords that she strummed were so tastefully clever

They planted this song in my mind

Chorus:

cause theres somethin so feminine about a mandolin

The way that they feel, the way that they ring

Just to see slender fingers, movin so quickly

Made this boy want to sing

And when I get older and I have a daughter

Ill teach her to sing and play her my songs

And Ill tell her some stories I can barely remember

And hope that she will sing along

And maybe one day shell take a fancy to pickin

cause when that bug bites you, you live with the sting

And if she could just strum a few simple measures

She could make some young man sing

cause theres somethin so feminine about a mandolin

Way that they feel, the way that they ring

And that evenin in a pasture somewhere near austin

That mandolin made me sing

Her mandolin made me sing
