A cat’s wail trails me as I sit behind the ‘boards
Hands shakin’, steppin’ up, tryin’ to find the chords
Standing center stage spewing heartfelt bits of rage
The Johnny Walker soul fire of love and other amber reveries
The cat’s wail calls to me
Wanting to be wanted
Needing to be loved
Before the night is over
I’ll make right from this wrong
I return to sit and wait for inspiration from above
Pour me something stronger - the Johnny Walker soul fire of love
As I’m waitin’ my head fills with the sounds
Of earthly cries from this creaky, old barroom town
The cat’s wail calls to me
Wanting to be wanted
Needing to be loved
Before the night is over
I’ll make right from this wrong
A cat’s wail trails me as I sit behind the ‘boards
Hands shakin’, steppin’ up, tryin’ to find the chords
Standing center stage spewing heartfelt bits of rage
The Johnny Walker soul fire of love and other amber reveries
The cat’s wail calls to me
It calls me back again…
