Stray Cat Strut

(album: Bridge City Sinners - 2016)

Black and orange stray cat sitting on a fence
Ain't got enough dough to pay the rent
I'm flat broke, but I don't care
I strut right by with my tail in the air

Stray cat strut, I'm a ladies' cat
Feline Casanova
Hey, man, that's that
Get a shoe thrown at me by a mean old man
We get our dinner from a garbage can

Well, I don't bother chasing mice around
(Don't bother, don't bother)
I slink down the alley looking for a fight
Howling to the moon on a hot summer's night
Singing the blues as the lady cats cry
"Wild stray cat, you're a real gone guy
I wish I could be as carefree and wild
But I got cat class and I got cat style"

Mrow
Don't you cross my path

I don't bother chasing mice around
No, no
I slink down the alley looking for a fight
Howling to the moon on a hot summer's night
Singing the blues as the lady cats cry
"Wild stray cat, you're a real gone guy
I wish I could be as carefree and wild
But I got cat class and I got cat style"
