Laura Nyro - Hands Off The Man (Flim Flam Man)

I Love This Song Enjoy xx


ALBUM - More Than A New Discovery

Hands off the man, the flim flam man.
His mind is up his sleeve and his talk is make believe.
Oh lord, the man's a fraud, he's flim flam man. Hes so cagey, hes a flim flam man.

Hands off the man, flim flam man.
He's the one in the Trojan horse making out like he's Santa Claus.
Oh lord, the man's a fraud, he's a flim flam man. He's a fox, he's a flim flam man.

Everybody wants him, the people and the police and all the pretty ladies disarm.
Oh yeah, the beautiful gent, you know he has hardly a cent.
He pays his monthly rent with daily charm.

Hands off the man, the flim flam man.
His mind is up his sleeve and his talk is make believe.
Oh lord, the man's a fraud, he's flim flam man. Hes so cagey, he's an artist.
He's a fox, he's a flim flam man.
Don't believe him, he's a flim flam. Ole road runner, he's a flim flam.

I DO NOT OWN THIS SONG JUS A FAN:)

50 years from now this song will still resonate with people and that is what makes Laura Nyro's music so beautiful--because it is not tied to any particular time or place. LITESKINHONEY thanks again for posting the lyrics so we can follow along with her performance.

Todd Rundgren also mentions her on his first album with "Baby Let's Swing". "Laura, saw your act in LA. . . ."

[Lovemylovething]

Swingin' tune! I love the Rat Pack vibe Laura's channeling on this one.

[boomerlady]

she was so cute and pretty!

[thewalkthrufire]

arguably the best female singer/ song writer of the 20th century....been listening to her magic since the 60's and she never gets old only to be rediscovered each and every listen...love love love. there aren't words to describe her indelible impact on so many lives.

[cloudfall23]

I knew about this girl, but not til the early 70's....couldn't get enough of her! She's just got IT. What a great great musician. LOVE LOVE LOVE HER!

Another striking song from Laura Nyro. I've just found her in the last few months. I missed her somehow back then. My loss. Thanks Laura. You truly added to the richness of the human race.
