Stray Cat Blues - Johnny Winter

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

I know you ain’t no scare-eyed honey.

There’ll be a feast if you just come upstairs

But it’s no hanging matter

It ain’t no capital crime

I can see you’re only fifteen years old

But I don’t want your I.D.

You look so restless and you’re so far from home

But you know it’s a, ain’t no hanging matter

Ain’t no capital crime

Oh yeah, you’re a strange stray cat

I’ll bet your mother didn’t know you could scream like that

Bet she didn’t know you could bite like that.

You look so weird and you’re so far from home

But you really miss your mother

Don’t look so scared I be no mad-brained bear

But ain’t no hanging matter

No it ain’t no, ain’t no capital crime

You say you got a friend, she’s wilder than you

Why don’t you bring her on upstairs

If she’s so wild she can join in too

But ain’t no hanging matter

It ain’t no capital crime
