Stray Cat Strut - Live 1995 Songtext
von Brian Setzer

This is a song you might remember
And we feel privileged to play it for you

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Black and orange stray cat sitting on a fence
I ain′t got enough bread 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, well, I'm a ladies' cat
I′m a feline Casanova, that′s where it's at
Get a shoe thrown at me from a mean old man
Get my dinner from a garbage can


I don′t bother chasing mice around
I'm sneaking down the alleyway looking for a fight
Howling to the moonlight on a hot summer night
Singing 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

I don't bother chasing mice around
I′m sneaking down the alleyway looking for a fight
Howling to the moonlight on a hot summer night
Singing the blues, I'm singing the blues
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

Well I take it, this is a bit of a rocking party town, huh?
A little jump loose, a little swing?
You got room to swing?
