Lyrics

[Intro] We'd like to do one for you now called..... "Stray Cat Blues" It's pretty hot, inn'it? [Verse 1] I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs I know you ain't no scare-eyed honey There'll be a feast if you just come upstairs, y'all [Refrain] It's no hanging matter, no It's no capital crime [Verse 2] I can see that you're thirteen years old But I don't want your I.D You look so lonesome, so far from home [Refrain] It's no hanging matter, no, little honey It's no capital crime [Chorus] Yeah, yeah, you're a strange, stray cat Yeah, don't you scratch like that Oh yeah, you're a strange, stray cat Bet your mama don't know that you scratch like that Bet she never saw you bite like that [Verse 3] You look so lonesome, so far from home But you don't really miss your mother Don't look so shit-scared, I'm not a mad-brained bear [Refrain] It's no hanging matter It's no capital crime, no no no [Chorus] Oh, yeah Woo! Yeah [Guitar solo] [Verse 4] Yeah, you say you got a friend, she's wilder than you Why don't you bring her upstairs? If she's so wild, she can join in too [Refrain] It's no hanging matter, no It's no capital crime [Chorus] Ah yeah, you're a strange, stray cat Ah yeah, don't you bite like that Yeah, you're a strange, stray cat Bet you mama don't know that you bite like that Bet she never saw you scratch my back Bet she never saw you bite like that I bet she never saw you scratch my back Woo! Thank you, thank you
