Lyrics
Black Cat Blues Matt Allen
V1
Black Cat cross my path
have no need to fear
Black Cat cross my path
have no need to fear
Put that cat up on my lap
scratch behind his ear
V2
Dark clouds overhead
wind and drivin’ rain
Dark clouds overhead
wind and drivin’ rain
some day soon the rain be gone
Sun come out again
V3
Broken mirror at my feet
my bad luck is done
Broken mirror at my feet
my bad luck is done
no misfortune come my way
no bad luck will come
Solo
V4
Angel watchin’ me
I don’t fear a thing
Angel watchin’ me
I don’t fear a thing
angel with me in this world
wears my wedding ring
V5
Devil wants to take my soul
you know he can try
Devil wants to take my soul
you know he can try
If I meet him on the road
spit right in his eye
V6 (repeat V1)
Black Cat cross my path
have no need to fear
Black Cat cross my path
have no need to fear
Put that cat up on my lap
scratch behind his ear
Put that cat up on my lap
scratch behind his ear
