Marshall Crenshaw - Steel Strings lyrics

Well, all those nights they hit rock bottom
The songs they sang, well, we forgot 'em
You could hear them play with shaky hands
Guitars strung up with rubber bands

Singing, do you want a man of steel
Or do you want a man that's real?
They used to play in the courts of kings
Now they're only made of steel when they're on steel strings

They used to be on every schoolgirl's wall
And they never dropped the beat at all
They could make it soar, they could make it hot
Once they got started they could never stop

Singing, do you want a man of steel
Or do you want a man that's real?
Some of them hide when the doorbell rings
They're only made of steel when they're on steel strings

Said, playing the man on steel strings
Playing the man on steel stringsMarshall Crenshaw - Steel Strings - http://motolyrics.com/marshall-crenshaw/steel-strings-lyrics.html
Playing the man on steel strings
Playing the man on steel strings

You expecting maybe Superman?
The best they do is the best they can
Now the manager's doing time in jail
The pink Cadillac is up for sale

And they're singing, do you want a man of steel
Or do you want a man that's real?
They try their hands at a thousand things
They're only made of steel when they're on steel strings

Yeah, they're playing the man on steel strings
Playing the man on steel strings
Playing the man on steel strings
Just playing the man on steel strings

Playing the man on steel strings
Playing the man on steel strings
Playing the man on steel strings
Playing the man on steel strings
