It's a mean black cat been 

Sratchin' round my do' 

Yes, there's a mean black cat been 

Scratchin' round my do' 

But if I catch him scratchin' 

He ain't gon' scratch no mo' 

Now this black cat is evil 

He rambles late at night 

Yes, this black cat is evil 

He rambles late at night 

You know he don't mean me no good 

He won't treat nobody right 

This black cat has been ramblin' 

He been scratchin' all night long 

This black cat been ramblin' 

He been scratchin' all night long 

When I come home last night 

I found my baby gone. 

'Play it, now' 

(harmonica & piano to end)
