Black Cat Scratch
BRIDGE
I’VE GOT A BLACK CAT SCRATCHIN AT THE DOOR
OF A BACK AVENUE TO A MOONLIT NIGHT
VERSE 1
SHE’LL NEVER KNOW IF I’M HOME
OR SCRATCHIN OUT THROUGH THE NIGHT
LICKING OFF MY WOUNDS
TEMPORARILY CONFUSED BY MY BOOZED UP PLIGHT
CHORUS 1
BUT I STUMBLE ON MERRILY TO YOU
LIKE A SOLDIER IN A LONG LOST FIGHT
HOWLING TO THE MOON
LOOKING OUT TO YOU
FOR MORE
OF YOUR INDULGENCE TONIGHT
VERSE 2
AINT IT AWFULL SAD
WHEN MEMORIES ARE GLAD
TO SAIL OFF TO THE SUNBURNED SKY
CHORUS 2
MY LOVE FOR YOU WON’T SING
AND ALL THE KINGS AND QUEENS
COULD NEVER REFUSE MY RIGHT
TO LOVE AND TO BEHOLD
ALL YOU FAIRLY SOLD
BUT THE BLACK CATS’S SCRATCHING AT THE DOOR
OF LOVE TONIGHT
VERSE 2
I’D NEVER KNOW WHICH WAY TO GO
IF I LOST YOU IN THE MOONLIT NIGHT
I’D SEARCH AROUND ALWAYS FEELING DOWN
CONFUSED BY MY BOOZED UP SIGHT
CHORUS 3
MY LOVE FOR YOU WON’T SING
AND ALL THE KINGS AND QUEENS
COULD NEVER REFUSE MY RIGHT
TO LOVE AND TO BEHOLD
ALL YOU FAIRLY SOLD
BUT THE BLACK CATS’S SCRATCHING AT THE DOOR
OF LOVE TONIGHT
