She threw back that shiny hair

Like the mane on a Delta queen

Gonna spend my last dime on a telephone call

'Cause she's the wildest thing I've ever seen She was just plain mister once

Got herself fixed up real good

Just a little boy lost in the land of the free

A wiggle and a walk away from her womanhood Now they call her the cat and that's a stone fact

They took a little of this, she got a little of that

Now Billy got a kitty, he got something to scratch

So they call her, yeah, they call her the cat She just does that double act

She got Babs and Joan down pat

She got hips like a Mick, she's a Rolling Stone

Never seen a woman shake like that She was just plain mister once

Got herself fixed up real good

Just a little boy lost in the land of the free

A wiggle and a walk away from womanhood Now they call her the cat and that's a stone fact

They took a little of this, she got a little of that

Now Billy got a kitty, he got something to scratch

So they call her, yeah, they call her the cat She's so fine that the water line

Don't separate hot and cold

She got stitched up bitchy by an old M.D.

Now she's headed out for Hollywood or so I'm told Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah Now they call her the cat and that's a stone fact

They took a little of this, she got a little of that

Now Billy got a kitty, he got something to scratch

So they call her, yeah, they call her the cat And that's a stone fact
