The Broken String Song - Steve Goodman

No, broke a string

I broke a string

I have to stand up here and sing

I was wrong, because that’s one too long

I broke a string, broke a string, broke a string

Mmmm, now if somebody please

Who works in this place

Could go in the back, and open the case

And bring out a set, ah you bet, I’ll change the string

Change the string, change the string

It won’t take long, it won’t take long

And then I won’t hafta, sing this goddamn song, goddamn song

Oh no, if he’d only bring, only bring

Another string, another string, another string

Mmmm, oh please, bring it to me

If you can’t find the whole set, then find a 'G'

Find a 'G', oh no, I’m like a bird with one wing

Without my string, without my string, without my string
