3
It was late in the evenin', just a few of us pickin'
4
But the lady she played so easy and fine
5
And the chords that she strummed were so tastefully clever
6
They planted this song in my mind
7
Chorus:
8
'Cause there's somethin' so feminine about a mandolin
9
The way that they feel, the way that they ring
10
Just to see slender fingers, movin' so quickly
11
Made this boy want to sing
12
And when I get older and I have a daughter
13
I'll teach her to sing and play her my songs
14
And I'll tell her some stories I can barely remember
15
And hope that she will sing along
16
And maybe one day she'll take a fancy to pickin'
17
'Cause when that bug bites you, you live with the sting
18
And if she could just strum a few simple measures
19
She could make some young man sing
20
'Cause there's somethin' so feminine about a mandolin
21
Way that they feel, the way that they ring
22
And that evenin' in a pasture somewhere near Austin
23
That mandolin made me sing
24
Her mandolin made me sing
