You Chicago women run hand in hand
|
You run around with one another’s man
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
I ain’t lyin', you’re the cheatin' kind
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
You come home at night talkin' out your head
|
You have to take a bath before you go to bed
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
I ain’t lyin', you’re the cheatin' kind
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
You’re in such a sniffer gettin' mighty strung
|
When you shake hands you got to hold it so long
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
I ain’t lyin', you’re the cheatin' kind
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
She as standin' in church with her own man
|
I saw you when you tickled her in her hand
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
I ain’t lyin', you’re the cheatin' kind
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
(Play it now!)
|
You’re brownskin, your husband ain’t fair
|
Your children all yellin' got curly hair
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
I ain’t lyin', you’re the cheatin' kind
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
Early this mornin' 'bout half past four
|
I seen Bill Johnson comin' out your door
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
I ain’t lyin', you’re the cheatin' kind
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s one thing I can’t understand
|
You broke up your home and quit your reg’lar man
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
|
I ain’t lyin', you’re the cheatin' kind
|
There’s a dead cat on the line
