Johnny Cash - Mean Eyed Cat Lyrics

Letra Mean Eyed Cat - Johnny Cash
I give my woman half my money at the general store
I said, \"Now buy a little groceries, and don't spend no more.\"
But she gave ten dollars for a ten cent hat
And bought some store bought cat food for a mean eyed cat.
When I give her ten more dollars for a one way ticket
She was mad as could be
Then I bet ten more that if she ever left
She'd come a-crawlin' back to me
When I woke up this mornin' and I turned my head
There wasn't a cotton pickin' thing on her side of the bed
I found a little note where her head belonged
It said, \"Dear John, honey, baby, I'm long gone.\"
When I heard a whistle blowin', and the big wheels a-turnin'
I was scared as I could be
I pt on my overalls and I headed to town
Gonna bring her back with me.
I asked the man down at the station if he'd seen her there
I told him all about her pretty eyes and long, blonde hair
He spit his tobacco, said, \"I'll be dad blamed,
I believe I did see her leavin' on the east bound train.\"
I bought a round trip ticket on the east bound train
I was broke as I could be
But when I come back, gotta buy another ticket
Gotta bring her back with me.
Well' I got off the train somewhere in Arkansas
And I worked up the guts to call my Mother-In-Law
She said, \"I'll tell you where she is, if you act right.\"
\"She's workin' four to twelve at Trucker's World tonight.\"
When I walked in she saw me, and she took off her apron
And she grabbed her goin' home hat
She bought a ticket with her tips
And now we've curled up on the sofa, me and her, and that mean eyed cat.
