Great website! I heard this blast from the past on the radio the other night. It's really quite entertaining & I'd like to include it in my repertoire. It has something to do with a guy who plays a rubber band between his toes and around his nose as far as I could make out. Not sure of the title though it seems logical given it's repeated in the chorus. First line is "Hand me down my walkin' cane..." Anybody have it? I'd appreciate an email.

The song is in fact "Rubber Band Man" from the seventies and I have no idea where to find Lyrics and chords. Good luck.

Used hotbot.com search to find Lyrics World (www.summer.com). Lyrics aren't complete but I got the first part:

THE RUBBERBAND MAN
The Spinners

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 were goin' out to catch the latest sound,
Guaranteed to blow your mind so high you won't come down.

Hey y'all, 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.

Once I went to hear them play at a club outside of town....
