You Know I Lost My Job

And Then I Wrecked My Car

I Tried To Walk It Off

I Didn't Get To Far

With These Holes In My Shoes

And The Black Cat Blues



I Called Up My Girl

I Thought She'd Understand

She Left Town The Next Day

With Another Man

Now What's A Poor Boy To Do

When He's Black Cat Blue



I Used To Think I Was Cool

Man I Had It All

Well My, My, My

Look How The Mighty Fall

Now I Got Nothin' To Lose

'Cept These Black Cat Blues



Repeat Third Verse



I Got The Black Cat Blues

I Got The Black Cat Blues

I Got The Black Cat Blues

I Got The Black Cat Blues

Now What's A Poor Boy To Do When He's Black Cat Blue

Now What's A Poor Boy To Do When He's Black Cat... Blue
