Mick Jagger
Stray Cat Blues (Live At University of Leeds / 1971)

[Intro]
We'd like to do one for you now called..... "Stray Cat Blues"

It's pretty hot, inn'it?

[Verse 1]
I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs
I know you ain't no scare-eyed honey
There'll be a feast if you just come upstairs, y'all

[Refrain]
It's no hanging matter, no
It's no capital crime

[Verse 2]
I can see that you're thirteen years old
But I don't want your I.D
You look so lonesome, so far from home

[Refrain]
It's no hanging matter, no, little honey
It's no capital crime

[Chorus]
Yeah, yeah, you're a strange, stray cat
Yeah, don't you scratch like that
Oh yeah, you're a strange, stray cat
Bet your mama don't know that you scratch like that
Bet she never saw you bite like that
[Verse 3]
You look so lonesome, so far from home
But you don't really miss your mother
Don't look so shit-scared, I'm not a mad-brained bear

[Refrain]
It's no hanging matter
It's no capital crime, no no no

[Chorus]
Oh, yeah
Woo!
Yeah

[Guitar solo]

[Verse 4]
Yeah, you say you got a friend, she's wilder than you
Why don't you bring her upstairs?
If she's so wild, she can join in too

[Refrain]
It's no hanging matter, no
It's no capital crime

[Chorus]
Ah yeah, you're a strange, stray cat
Ah yeah, don't you bite like that
Yeah, you're a strange, stray cat
Bet you mama don't know that you bite like that
Bet she never saw you scratch my back
Bet she never saw you bite like that
I bet she never saw you scratch my back
Woo! Thank you, thank you
