Old Black Cat Lyrics
The song Old Black Cat is performed by Ian Anderson in the album named Rupi's Dance in the year 2003 .
My old black cat pa*sed away this morning.
He never knew what a hard day was
Woke up late and danced on tin roofs
If questioned "Why?" - answered, "Just Because"
He never spoke much, preferrring silence:
8 lost lives was all he had.
Occasionally sneaked some summer dinner
He wasn't good and wasn't bad.
My old black cat wasn't much of a looker.
You could pa*s him by - just a quiet shadow.
Got pushed around by all the other little guys.
Didn't seem to mind much - just the way life goes.
Padded about in furry slippers.
Didn't make any special friends.
He played it cool with wide-eyed innocence,
Recieving gladly what the good Lord sends.
Forgot to give his Christmas present.
Black cat collar, nice and new.
Thought he'd make it through to New Year.
I guess this song will have to do.
My old black cat...
Old black cat...
