Black Cat Blues (Take 2) - Memphis Minnie

I got a big black cat who sits in my back door

He catches every rat run across my floor

Now everybody wants to buy my kitty

Everybody wants to buy my kitty

Everybody wants to buy my kitty

I wouldn’t sell that cat to save your soul

If it wasn’t for that cat, I wouldn’t know what I would do

Rats cutting up all of my clothes and shoes

Now everybody wants to buy my kitty

Everybody wants to buy my kitty

Everybody wants to buy my kitty

I wouldn’t sell that cat to save your soul

I been had this old cat, now, for three, four years

Didn’t nobody want him till I brought him here

Now everybody wants to buy my kitty
