Lyrics
BLACK CAT HOOT OWL BLUES
Black cat on my doorstep,
black cat on my window-sill,
If one black cat don't cross me,
another black cat will
It's bad luck if I'm jolly,
bad luck if I cry
It's bad luck if I stay here,
it's still more bad luck if I die
Last night a hootin' owl come and sit right over my door
A feelin' seems to tell me, I'll never see my girl no more
I feel my left eye jumpin',
I'm on my P's and Q's
I feel my brain a-thumpin',
I got no time to lose
Hooting owl still sits there,
Think I have to pay my dues
Daddy's superstitious,
tryin' to overcome these blues
Last night a hootin' owl come and sit right over my door
A feelin' seems to tell me, I'll never see my girl no more
