Put The Cat Out, Darlin' Been on the road a week And I’m feelin’ the pinch long miles are crawlin’ by Inch by inch You’re smilin’ from the dashboard Swear I see you winkin’ Sometimes I wonder If you hear what I’m thinkin’ Put the cat out darlin’ Tonight we’ll be howlin’ It won’t be a moment too soon I’m bringin’ the brew There’ll be just me and you Yeah and that big old devilish moon Yeah and that big old devilish moon Park my eighteen-wheeler At a diesel cafe Order a coffee and chicken fried steak Settle in the booth For a ten minute rest Waitress wants to flirt But who needs second-best Put the cat out darlin’ Tonight we’ll be howlin’ It won’t be a moment too soon I’m bringin’ the brew There’ll be just me and you Yeah and that big old devilish moon Yeah and that big old devilish moon... © 2011 Donna Devine
