Текст (слова) песни: Lonnie Johnson - Black Cat Blues (1927)
A black cat’s full of trouble and I know he has nine lives. A black cat’s full of trouble and I know he has nine lives. But mama ’s troubled now because a black cat never dies.
When I woke up this morning, and a black cat ‘s hangin’ ‘round my door. When I woke up this morning, and a black cat ‘s hangin’ ‘round my door. He’s the cause of my mense, not comin’ back to me anymore.
Now if you want to keep your man, get a dog to watch night and day. Now if you want to keep your man, get a dog to watch night and day. That’s the only thing to do, to keep that mean black cat away.
Some women like a yellow, but I don’t want no man to cry. Some women like a yellow, but I don’t want no man to cry. I hope that mistreatin’ black cat, will stay ‘way from my house tonight.
