Scat Cat, Here Kitty, Kitty

Hm-mm

People always ask me, they say

"Billy Soul, why do you talk in so many of your songs?"

I say, "Because I've been so many places

And I've seen so many things"

Like the other day

I heard a lady talking to her own man

And what she said, I wanna to share with you

Look, she said

"You've been cheating on me, honey

Ever since I've been with you

And because I love you so much

It's kinda hard for me to quit you

You stay out all night, running the streets

You stay gone all the time

You know that ain't right, the way you treat me

It's really blowing my mind"

She said, "the way you treat me

It's a shame and a pity"

She said, "When you say, scat cat

Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty" (scat cat)

Oh (here kitty, kitty)

Here kitty, kitty (scat cat, here kitty, kitty)

You say that you love me

But I can't tell, 'cause you do me wrong

What do you really feel for me?

'Cause all ain't well, you're about to lose your home

You know I love you, honey

But it needs to be a two-way thing

'Cause all this neglect and disrespect

I can't take that from my man

She said, "Just the other day, a man said I was still pretty"

When you say, "Scat cat"

Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty" (scat cat)

Oh, baby (here kitty, kitty)

Here kitty, kitty (scat cat, here kitty, kitty)

You always say that you love my body

And I feel just like silk

Well, this cat needs to be loved and hugged

Then served a little warm milk

You come home fussing and leave home cussing

You treat me so unkind

No kiss and no touching

It's about to blow my mind

She said, "Just the other day

I had to turn down your best friend, Smitty"

She said, when you say, "Scat cat"

Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty" (scat cat)

Oh, baby (here kitty, kitty)

Here kitty, kitty (scat cat, here kitty, kitty)

She said, "This cat needs some lovin'

This cat needs some huggin'

When was the last time I had a good rubbin'? (Talking 'bout the meow)

(Talking 'bout me, though) oh, baby

If you don't love me (scat cat)

Some other man show him (here kitty, kitty)

'Cause I'm tired of you out there giving (scat cat)

Giving other women my thrill (here kitty, kitty)

You leave me at home (scat cat)

Like I'm somewhere at large (here kitty, kitty)

I can't stand it (scat cat)

You're leaving me lost, darling (here kitty, kitty)

When you say, "Scat cat"

Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty"

Sometimes I'd be tempted to go

But I don't, because I love you so

Scat cat

Here kitty, kitty

When you push me away (scat cat)

Another man say (here kitty, kitty)
