Lyrics: Nine Lives

Well, well, well
I feel just like
I'm fallin’ in love
There's a new cool
Some kind of verbooty
It fits me like a velvet glove

And it's cool
Shu-ba-pa-do-ba
She's talking to me
Juba to Jive
Yeah, the girl's in love
No doubt about it
The moment of truth has arrived

And in a wink
The funk was all around me
And I think
I'm dead in love again

Nines lives...feelin’ lucky
Nine lives...live again
Nine lives...it ain't over
Nine lives...live for ten

I got good luck
In certain situations
I'm feelin’ like I hung the moon
And at times
I'm so weak from lovin’
I couldn't even carry a tune
Yeah

But now I'm back
Oh yes I am
I maybe fall apart at the seams
I had a nightmare
Believe me when I tell you
Nobody ever dies in their dreams

And I think
I need a stay of execution
In a wink
I'm dead in love again

Nine lives...puss and booty
Nine lives...live again
Nine lives...it ain't over
Nine lives...live for ten

Well, well, well
Engine room to bombardier
Is this a dream
I died and went to heaven
She's enough to make you cry in your beer

How can a good thing
7 come 11
Slip into a fare-thee-well
And how can one man's
Little bit of heaven
Turn into another man's hell

Well I think I need
A stay of execution
Yeah, I know
I'm dead in love again

Nine lives...hello lucky
Nine lives...live again
Nine lives...it ain't over
Nine lives...live for ten

Nine lives...takin’ over
Nine lives...live again
Nine lives...it ain't over
Nine lives...live for ten
