Chris Andrews - Yesterday Man [1965]

I’m Her Yesterday Man

(Played at the original Twisted Wheel club, Manchester)

Chris Andrews started as the lead singer with Chris Ravel & The Ravers. He made his TV debut on 14th March 1959 on the mould breaking Oh Boy! show.

He was signed by Eve Taylor, who also
looked after the careers of Adam Faith and Sandie Shaw.

Chris Andrews started out as a song writer and penned Long Live Love, Girl Don’t Come and Message Understood for Sandie Shaw. His own follow up single was

To Whom It Concerns.

My own favourite Chris Andrews song was Girl Don’t Come, again for Sandi Shaw.

Song Lyrics – I’m Her Yesterday Man, Chris Andrews

I’m her yesterday man
well my friends that’s what I am
I’m her yesterday man
well my friends that’s what I am
that’s what I am, her yesterday man

Please tell me something have you met an angel
Someone too lovely to live on earth
Well yesterday I thought I met an angel but
she wasn’t worth what she seemed to be worth

Oh, what a fool I have been
I was sure taken in

Yeah, I’m her yesterday man
well my friends that’s what I am
I’m her yesterday man
well my friends that’s what I am
that’s what I am, her yesterday man

Get some of the good kind and some of the bad kind
Some of the others or in between
But all that I can say she is the worse kind
Well I think you know what I mean

And yet for all I say
I take the bad any day

Now I’m her yesterday man
well my friends that’s what I am
I’m her yesterday man
well my friends that’s what I am
that’s what I am, her yesterday man

…oh come a little closer baby don’t get tell me
you gonna leave me, you leave me, I know that, I know that…
