[Verse 1]
Catlong sighs holding Kitty's black tooth
She left to marry some top cat, ain't that the cold truth
There hasn't been a tally since Sally left the alley
Since Kitty left with Big Pretty, things have got pretty thin, oh yes, they have
It's tight on this fence since them young dudes are musclin' in

[Verse 2]
Jack Knife sighs 'cause baby's in a bundle
Well, she goes running nightly, lightly through the jungle
Them tin cans explodin' in the ninety-degree heat
Cat somehow lost his baby down on Bleecker Street

[Pre-Chorus 1]
It's sad, sad story but it's true
The Cat shrugs his shoulders, sits back and sighs

[Chorus]
He says "oh, what can I do?
Hey, what can I do?
Tell me, oh, what can I do?
Oh, what can I do?"

[Verse 3]
Catlong lies back, bent on a trashcan
Flashing lights cut the night, dude in white says he's the man
You better learn to move fast when you're young or you're not long around
Cat somehow lost his Kitty down in the city pound
So get right, get tight, get down!
[Bridge]
Here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes, oh yeah
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes
Here she comes, here she comes

[Refrain]
Kitty's back in town, here she comes now
Kitty's back in town
Kitty's back in town, here she comes now
Kitty's back in town
Kitty's back in town, here she comes now
Kitty's back in town

[Verse 3]
Cat knows his Kitty's been untrue
And that she left him for a city dude
But she's so soft, she's so blue
When he looks into her eyes, he just sits back and sighs
[Chorus]
Oh, what can I do?
Hey, what can I do?
Tell me, oh, what can I do?
Oh, what can I do?

[Outro]
Ooh, it's alright, it's alright
Ooh, it's alright, it's alright
Ooh, it's alright, it's alright
Ooh, it's alright, it's alright
