Something So Feminine About A Mandolin Lyrics


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 mindchorus:
’cause there’s 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 singand when i get older and i have a daughter
i’ll teach her to sing and play her my songs
and i’ll tell her some stories i can barely remember
and hope that she will sing alongand maybe one day she’ll 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 there’s 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 singher mandolin made me sing
