Lyric I ve Got No Strings

(Ned Washington/Leigh Harline)

I ve got no strings to hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings but now I m free
There are no strings on me

I ve got no strings so I have fun
And I m not tied to anyone
How I love my liberty
There are no strings on me

Hi-ho the me-ri-o
I m as happy as can be
And I want the world to know
Nothing ever worries me

I ve got no strings to hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings but now I m free
There are no strings on me

Why does the gay little dicky bird sing
What put the zing in a butterfly s wing
What s the reason for the smile of a troubadour?

Why does the breeze have a barrel of fun?
Even the bee who s a son of a gun
All because they re free
And stringless the same as me

I ve got no strings to hold me down
To make me fret, or make me frown
I had strings but now I m free
There are no strings on me

I m as happy as can be
Nothing ever worries me

I ve got no strings so I have fun
And I m not tied to anyone
How I love my liberty
There are no strings on me

There ain t no strings on me
There are no strings on me
