Red Cat Till I Die
(专辑: My Name Is Buddy - 2007)
Well I'm a
Red Cat till I
die, I'm a
Red Cat through and through Now you can't turn me yellow and you can't make me blue You can't make me do things I
know it's wrong to do I'm a
Red Cat till I
die, I'm telling you Well a
bunch of sneaking deputies they came a-snooping round Then they grabbed me in the
alley whilst I
was laying down And then they threw me in the
wagon and then they ran me in Then they locked me in the
jailhouse with all my hobo friends Saying, where's that rat named Lefty? And where's that frog named Tom? Been agitating lately And spreading great alarm Now the
cows walked out this morning And now the
hens won't lay Said, you're going to wreck our country And it ain't the
American Way I
ain't no strikebreaker and I
ain't no stoolie rat Won't squeal on Tom and Lefty, I
won't say where they're at You can't scare me, copper, and I
don't care what you do I'm a
Red Cat till I
die, I'm telling you Now you think you're hard-boiled, you're just yellow inside My daddy always warned me, now I
know he's right You're just cowards hiding behind a
little tin star And the
people are starting to realize what a
bunch of clowns you are Well I
might have been a
banker without the
least excuse Now I
might have been the
President, but tell me what's the
use Might have been an FBI man but I
ain't no Peeping Tom Then I
might have been a
deputy and put my white sheet on But I'm a
Red Cat till I
die, I'm a
Red Cat through and through I
won't fight your rich man's war and kill poor folks for you Now you can't make me do things that I
know it's wrong to do I'm a
Red Cat till I
die, I'm telling you
