Freddie Spruell — Tom Cat Blues lyrics

Lyrics

It was late last night: I tried so hard to sleep
When a mean old tomcat: started his midnight creep
Tomcat’s in my window: tomcat’s all around my door
I never heard so much moaning and whining: in my life
before
I don’t trust the tomcat: he’s got such an evil eye
He’s sneaking and mistreating: die if that ain’t no lie
A tomcat man: is trying to break up my home
That’s why it makes me mad: when I hear a tomcat moan
Oh Mr tomcat: get somebody of your own
For you will lose your nine lives: if you don’t let my baby alone
