This cat's on a hot tin roof
Drinkin' that whiskey, 96 proof
Don't need no doctor, don't feel no pain
My legs are just two steps ahead of my brain
This cat's on a hot tin roof
This cat's gonna shake it loose
This cat don't get the blues
'cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof
This cat's been out on the town
I'm the cat's meow, I'm the king with a crown
My head is spinnin' and I got the shakes
I can't stop now 'cause I got no brakes
This cat's on a hot tin roof
This cat's gonna shake it loose
This cat don't get the blues
'cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof
There ain't no point in holdin' me down
I'll kick and I'll scratch and I'll howl
Hey hound dog, get outta my way
'cause this cat is on the prowl
This cat's on a hot tin roof
Jumpin' up and down like a long neck goose
Shimmy and shake, baby you can't fail
Rockin' so hard that it's off the scale
This cat's on a hot tin roof
This cat's gonna shake it loose
This cat don't get the blues
'cause this cat's shakin' on a hot tin roof
