Black Cat Bone

I believe to my soul my baby got a black cat bone

I believe to my soul my baby got a black cat bone

Try so hard just can’t leave her alone

———-

Come on baby, tell me what you trying to do

Come on baby, tell me what you trying to do

Trying to love me baby, and some other man too

(Spoken: Can’t do that to me)

She’s long and she’s tall, weeps like a willow tree

Long and she’s tall, weeps like a willow tree

I feel so good when a woman makes love to me

————————-

Hold me baby, hold me in your arms

Hold me baby, hold me in your arms

Want you to love me ’til your good man comes

————————

Come on baby, tell me what you want me to do

Come on baby, tell me what you want me to do

Did everything darling, trying to get along with you
