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 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 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 bu*terfly'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 It's all because they're free And stringless the same as me I've got no strings and i'm so glad No strings at all to make me sad I had strings but now i'm free, There are no strings on me Oh, hi-ho, the way we go I'm as happy as can be I want the world to know nothing ever worries me! I've got no strings so i have fun I'm not tied up to anyone How i love my liberty, there are no strings on me! No ties to bind me, it's not easy to find me, 'cause i've got no strings on me!
