Stray Cat Strut
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Black and orange stray cats 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 lady's cat
A feline casanova
Hey man! That's sad
Get a shoe thrown at me from a mean old man
Get my dinner from a garbage can
Yeah, don't cross my path!
I don't bother chasing mice around
I slink down the alley, looking for a fight
Howlin' to the moonlight on a hot summer night
Singin' the blues while 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
