Soundgarden - Stray Cat Blues lyrics

I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs

I know you're no scare-eyed honey

There'll be a feast if you just come upstairs

This ain't no hanging matter

No, this ain't no capital crime

Ya I can see that you're just fifteen years old

But I don't want your I.D.

Ya I can see that you're so far from home

This ain't no hanging matter,

No it ain't no capital crime

[Chorus]

Oh yeah, you're a stray stray cat

Oh yeah, you're a stray stray cat

Oh yeah, you're a stray stray cat

I bet your momma never saw you fight like that

I bet your momma never saw you scratch my back

You like to get yourself those _____ from home

But I know you miss your mother

You look so scared out of my man made bed

This ain't no hanging matter

No, this ain't no capital crime

(Chorus)

I bet your momma never heard you spit like that

I bet your momma never saw you scratch my back

I see your girlfriend and she's wilder than you

Why don't you bring her upstairs

She's wild enough that she can join in too

This ain't no hanging matter

No, this ain't no capital crime

(Chorus)

I bet your momma never saw you fight like that

I bet your momma never saw you scratch my back

I bet your momma never saw you

I bet your momma never heard you spit like that

I bet your momma never told you

I bet your momma never told you

I bet your momma never told you you scratch like that

Oh yeah, Oh yeah
