Desperado Songtext
von Stray Cats

Oooh, Oooh, Oooh, Oooh,
Black and orange stray cat sittin′ 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 ladies′ cat,
A feline Casanova.
Hey man, thats where its at
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
Howling 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.

I don′t bother chasing mice around
I slink down the alley looking for a fight
Howling 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.
