Black Cat Bone Lyrics

I believe my old lady she done, found my black cat bone
You know I believe my old lady she done, found my black cat bone
I got a funny feelin' 'bout her, something's goin' (all) wrong.

She don't shoot (?)in the morning, she walk the streets till late at night
She don't shoot (?) in the morning, she walk the streets till late at night
Well she come home in the evening, -don't do a doggone thing but fight.

Gonna call up the operator, gonna ride from town to town,
get my business straight, find out whatintheworld’s been goin’ down,
I believe my baby she done, found my black cat bone
Got a funny feelin' 'bout her, something's going (all) wrong

You know my woman treats me like I was a doggone slave,
You know my baby treats me like I was a doggone slave,
Yeah, she must be tired of living , gonna put her 6 feet in her grave.

I'm gonna make it up to Memphis, gonna get my ham-bone boiled,
been layin’ around here in LeelandMissippi- my ham-bone done spoiled.
Gonna make it to Memphis man, to get my ham-bone boiled.
I been layin’ around here in LeelandMissippi, ‘til my little ham-bone done spoiled.

I believe my old lady she done, found my black cat bone
You know I believe my baby should-a, found my black cat bone
I got a funny feelin' ‘bout her, something's going all wrong
