Lyrics:
Pull the string and I'll wink at you
I'm your puppet
I'll do funny things if you want me to
I'm your puppet

I'll be yours to have and to hold
Darling you've got full control of your puppet

Pull another string and I'll kiss your lips
I'm your puppet
Snap your finger and I'll turn you some flips
I'm your puppet

Your every wish is my command
All you gotta do is wiggle your little hand
I'm your puppet, I'm your puppet

I'm just a toy, just a funny boy
That makes you laugh when you're blue
I'll be wonderful, do just what I'm told
I'll do anything for you
I'm your puppet, I'm your puppet

Just pull them little strings and I'll sing you a song
I'm your puppet
Make me do right or make me do wrong
I'm your puppet

Treat me good and I'll do anything
I'm just a puppet an you hold my string
I'm your puppet

Walking, talking, living, loving puppet
I'm hanging on a string
I'll do anything
I’ll hold you and kiss you and love you
Put me up, put me down
String me up, string me down
