Black Cat

Black Cat - Tommy Collins

Well a black cat crossed my path

I turned around when I saw that

Then I threw away my good felt hat

And I walked on down the road

I took a stroll down by the sea

Hoping no more cats to see

Then I heard a meow right behind me

So I took steps on another road

Black cat black cat

Black cats all around me

I went over to the dog pound

I didn't think I'd see any cats around

But I saw two black ones lying on the ground

So I found another way to go

I sat down 'neath a live oak tree

I saw a little girl she was lonely

She had a black cat but it didn't scare me

'Cause I liked her right well right off

Black cat black cat

Black cats all around me

Well I sat down beside her and talked a little bit

I sure was lucky I made a big hit

I smiled at the kitty and petted it

'Cause a black cat never hurt me

Well to make a long story short and sweet

You can't blame a cat for crossing the street

It even seems like they helped me to meet

The pretty little lonely girl

Black cat black cat

They're not unlucky to me

We're gonna have two or three

Black cat black cat

We're gonna have two or three
