Black Cat Bone Songtext
von Lightnin’ Hopkins

Well, you′re one black cat, one day you'll find your tree
They say,"You′re one the black cat"
Some day you'll find your tree
Then I'll hide my shoe somewhere near your sherry tree


Well, I take you down in town, I paid your doctor bill
When I′m in some trouble, you′re tryin' to get me killed
You see, someday you′ll find your tree
Then I'll hide my shoe somewhere near your sherry tree

Well, I take you in my home, you ate up all my bread
I left there this mornin′, you tried to mess up in my bed
You're sayin′ you had one black rat, someday you'll find your tree
Then I'll hide my shoe somewhere near your sherry tree

Well, I woke up this mornin′, the same thing on my mind
I′m thinkin' ′bout you, baby, you're walkin′ down the line
You're saying you′re the one black cat, someday you'll find your tree
Then I'll hide my shoe somewhere near your sherry tree
