Black Cat Charlie

I've been a stray cat far too long
Tired of foolin' with this ball of yarn
I've been on this fence just singing my song
Meow meow meow, Baby, all day long
Scratch on the door ... is anyone there?
How do you like my Calico hair?

I was The Cat - the pick of the litter
I'll make you purr, Baby, I'm no quitter
It's good to be a stray cat most of the time
But I need a kitty to share my wine
Stray cat doin' nothing wrong
Just try to fit in and try to belong

I run from the dog – what a big loser
He lost his bitch because he's a real boozer
I kinda feel bad for that canine
I saw his poodle, man, she was fine
I try to get along in the yard
but I'm a stray cat - it sure is hard

Hey you! The puffy one!
Come over here and we'll have some fun
Let's jump the fence and go to town
This stray cat can never settle down
Black Cat Charlie says it's all good
You're the King of the Kitties here in the hood

Stayin on the fence is just your thing
You're closer to the moon, and it makes you sing
I know the cats who done settle down
They trimmed their whiskers ... do nothing but frown
So play with that yarn a little more
So the rest of us cats can hear you roar

Puss'n Boots is kind o' greasy
That cardboard pizza is tastin' cheesy
Cod or salmon will do the trick
But not from a can that cuts my lip
Black Cat Charlie says it's all good
You're the King of the Kitties here in the hood

Chardonnay would make my day
Dom Perignon would get the job done
That stanky fish - it is so sweet
That's my kind o' food, that's my kind o' meat
Black Cat Charlie says it's all good
You're the King of the Kitties here in the hood
