Every time you look at me I'm as helpless as can be I become a puppet on a string You can do 'most anything to me All you do is touch my hand And your wish is my command I become a puppet on a string You can do 'most anything to me If you really love me Darling please be kind I offer you the truest love That you will ever find Take my heart and please be fair Handle it with loving care For I'm just a puppet on a string You can do 'most anything to me If you really love me Darling please be kind I offer you the truest love That you will ever find Take my heart and please be fair Handle it with loving care For I'm just a puppet on a string You can do 'most anything to me You can do 'most anything to me
