Hand me down my walkin' cane,
Hand me down my hat.
Hurry now and don't be late
'Cause we ain't got time to chat.
You and me we're goin' out
To catch the latest sound.
Guaranteed to blow your mind
So high you won't come down.
Hey ya'll prepare yourself for the rubberband-man.
You've never heard a sound
Like the rubberband-man.
You're bound to lose control
When the rubberband starts to jam.
Oh boy, this dude is outta sight!
Everything he does seems to come out right!
Once I went to hear them play
At a club outside of town.
I was so surprised,
I was hypnotized
By the sound this cat put down.
When I saw this short fat guy
Stretch a band between his toes.
Hey, I laughed so hard
'Cause the man got down
When he finally reached his goal.
Hey ya'll prepare yourself for the rubberband-man.
You've never heard a sound
Like the rubberband-man.
You're bound to lose control
When the rubberband starts to jam.
Got that rubber band
Up on his toes.
And then he wriggled it up
All around his nose.
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Playin' all that music, yet keepin' time.
Where in the world did he learn that, oh Lord?
Lord, help him get away.
Hey ya'll prepare yourself for the rubberband-man.
You've never heard a sound
Like the rubberband-man.
You're bound to lose control
When the rubberband starts to jam.
Rubberband man, rubberband man.
How much of this stuff do he think we can stand?
So much rhythm, grace, and debonair for one man.
And then he had the nerve to wiggle his left toe
Went to his knee, got the feelin' in his head, y'all.
Oh, come on baby,
Hey ya'll prepare yourself for the rubberband-man.
You've never heard a sound
Like the rubberband-man.
You're bound to lose control
When the rubberband starts to jam.
Rubberband man starts to jam
Moving up and down 'cross the land
Got the people all in his wake
Everything probably seems outta place
Just move it, just move, move, move it, just
Rubberband, rubberband man.
Just move it, just move, move, move it, just
Rubberband, rubberband man
Get down, oh, get down low.
