Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He's got a nice little life, he's gonna live it
But on Friday nights, he plays that mandolin
Painted red and he said, "It's not the best, I know
But it's mine, I'm going to make it mine"
People there can't help but care
About the friendly music of a guy
Who's getting by from their applause
He's got a song that moves along
He's got his local crowd tonight
At Angelina's family bar and grill


[Chorus]
He's got his heart on his sleeve
The songs he plays just living free
But who knows what goes through his mind
When he plays a song it brings along
Everybody saying
Who's that guy who plays the mandolin, mandolin
Oh-yeah, mandolin


[Verse 2]
Got a car, got a scar
Like everyone, he's got a few, but
Everybody loves that mandolin
Got his problems, bills to pay
Somehow that boy finds a way
Through paychecks in tip jars, yeah


[Chorus]
He's got his heart on his sleeve
The songs he plays just living free
But who knows what goes through his mind
When he plays a song it brings along
Everybody saying
Who's that guy who plays the mandolin, mandolin
Oh-yeah, mandolin


[Bridge]
Oh, he's the kind of guy
Who never really wanted fame
His feet are planted firmly on the ground
He never wanted people to remember his name
He never wanted word to get around
That he found Heaven on Earth


[Chorus]
He's got his heart on his sleeve
The songs he plays just living free
But who knows what goes through his mind
When he plays a song it brings along
Everybody saying, "Who's that guy who plays the mandolin?"
"Oh, I'm the guy who plays the mandolin"
Mandolin, oh, mandolin
