johnny cash - mean eyed cat lyrics

Loading...

i give my woman half my money at the general store i said, “now buy a little groceries, and don’t spend no more.” but she gave ten dollars for a ten cent hat and bought some store bought cat food for a mean eyed cat.

when i give her ten more dollars for a one way ticket she was mad as she could be then i bet ten more that if she ever left she’d come a-crawlin’ back to me when i woke up this mornin’ and i turned my head there wasn’t a cotton pickin’ thing on her side of the bed i found a little old note where her head belonged it said, “dear john, honey, baby, i’m long gone.”

when i heard a whistle blowin’, and the big wheels a-turnin’ i was scared as i could be i put on my overalls and i headed to town gonna bring her back with me.

i asked the man down at the station if he’d seen her there i told him all about her pretty eyes and long, blonde hair he spit his tobacco, said, “i’ll be dad blamed…… i believe i did see her leavin’ on the east bound train.”

i bought a round trip ticket on the east bound train i was broke as i could be but when i come back, gotta buy another ticket gotta bring her back with me.

well, i got off the train somewhere in arkansas and i worked up the guts to call my mother-in-law she said, “i’ll tell you where she is, if you act right.” “she’s workin’ four to twelve at trucker’s world tonight.”

when i walked in she saw me, and she took off her apr-n and she grabbed her goin’ home hat she bought a ticket with her tips and now we’re curled up on the sofa, me and her….and that mean eyed cat
