Stray Cat Blues Lyrics

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
But it's no hanging matter
It ain't no capital crime
I can see you're only fifteen years old
But I don't want your I.D.
You look so restless and you're so far from home
But you know it's a, ain't no hanging matter
Ain't no capital crime
Oh yeah, you're a strange stray cat
I'll bet your mother didn't know you could scream like that
Bet she didn't know you could b*** like that.

You look so weird and you're so far from home
But you really miss your mother
Don't look so scared I be no mad-brained bear
But ain't no hanging matter
No it ain't no, ain't no capital crime
You say you got a friend, she's wilder than you
Why don't you bring her on upstairs
If she's so wild she can join in too
But ain't no hanging matter
It ain't no capital crime
