A relativistic string model for hadrons is presented. The center-of-mass motion is separated correctly. The vibrational and rotational motions of the string are solved by using the WKB approximation. Moreover, their decay widths are calculated by taking into account the pair creation of quarks inside the string. Both the mass spectra and the decay widths are reproduced fairly well in comparison with experimental data.
