Alley Cat

from Hoodoo Down by The Damned and Dirty

lyrics

Well, now you know the time is nigh
Everybody’s gonna get high
This party should be well underway
But the band’s gone missing since yesterday
They were last seen ordering food
From a guy that had been twice tattooed
One on the shoulder, looking pretty slick
And the other one is right there on his …

But now maybe
You drive me crazy
Ain’t got no time for that
Cause I’m just like an alley cat

The party was over before it began
Did not have no backup plan
The night was young and the girls were pretty
But I left that joint and went straight for the city
Walked by a club and to my surprise
A long legged girl jumped out and cried
“Baby, have you seen this band inside?”
I thought “mmm, this could be just right”

But now maybe
You drive me crazy
Ain’t got no time for that
Cause I’m just like an alley cat

Well my rep ain’t never been clean
I think you know just what I mean
I done things that’ll make your mama scream
But this chick, she had that crazy gleam
Her legs were long and her hair smelled nice
But you had better take my advice
If she done look like she might bite
You’d better get out! and call it a night

But now maybe
You drive me crazy
Ain’t got no time for that
Cause I’m just like an alley cat
