John Martyn - The Cat Won’t Work Tonight lyrics
[John Martyn - The Cat Won’t Work Tonight lyrics]
Running jumping standing still a
Ghoul up there
Some goon up on Glastonbury Tor been itching
The cat can't work tonight
The cat just will not work tonight
I know that the cat won't work tonight
I tell you this cat won't work tonight
You can watch the sun fall
In to my sweetest embrace
You can even try to show
Me some baptist better place
You can watch me as I try to fly
Watch the stars as your heart
Tries not to cry the cat won't work
The cat won't work tonight
I'm telling you, the cat don't work
The cat don't work tonight
The cat won't work
The cat won't work tonight
Been itching, been scratching, been stopping
Been starting got a face like a hatchet
Mother like a spanner with a half shut knife
Out on the tiles with me all the time
Walking, fooling, child's and wives
Thе cat won't work, won't work tonight
I tell you the cat won't
Work, won't work tonight, oh no
The cat won't work
Thе cat won't work tonight
Running, jumping, standing still
Like a goon up there on Goon Hilly Down
Watch the dilly dilly run, huh
Let them talents fall down
The cat won't work, the
Cat won't work tonight, i'm telling you
The cat can't work
The cat can't work tonight
Looking like a cat's paw
Feeling like a rabbit's foot
Maybe get lucky but it must be good
The cat can't work
The cat don't work tonight
Too busy itching and scratching
Looking the patch right over
Too busy scratching and itching
Looking out for bitching
I tell you now the cat don't work
The cat don't work tonight
The cat don't work
The cat don't work tonight
The cat don't work
The cat don't work tonight
Some other time, send me a line
Too busy itching, scratching, bitching
Hatching plots and schemes and plans
Just can't work the cat don't work
The can don't work tonight
Ghoul up there
Some goon up on Glastonbury Tor been itching
The cat can't work tonight
The cat just will not work tonight
I know that the cat won't work tonight
I tell you this cat won't work tonight
You can watch the sun fall
In to my sweetest embrace
You can even try to show
Me some baptist better place
You can watch me as I try to fly
Watch the stars as your heart
Tries not to cry the cat won't work
The cat won't work tonight
I'm telling you, the cat don't work
The cat don't work tonight
The cat won't work
The cat won't work tonight
Been itching, been scratching, been stopping
Been starting got a face like a hatchet
Mother like a spanner with a half shut knife
Out on the tiles with me all the time
Walking, fooling, child's and wives
Thе cat won't work, won't work tonight
I tell you the cat won't
Work, won't work tonight, oh no
The cat won't work
Thе cat won't work tonight
Running, jumping, standing still
Like a goon up there on Goon Hilly Down
Watch the dilly dilly run, huh
Let them talents fall down
The cat won't work, the
Cat won't work tonight, i'm telling you
The cat can't work
The cat can't work tonight
Looking like a cat's paw
Feeling like a rabbit's foot
Maybe get lucky but it must be good
The cat can't work
The cat don't work tonight
Too busy itching and scratching
Looking the patch right over
Too busy scratching and itching
Looking out for bitching
I tell you now the cat don't work
The cat don't work tonight
The cat don't work
The cat don't work tonight
The cat don't work

Too busy itching, scratching, bitching
Hatching plots and schemes and plans
Just can't work the cat don't work
The can don't work tonight
