Lyrics: Black Cat Bone

[Albert Collins & Robert Cray version]
12-bar blues: I, I, I, I, IV, IV, I, I, V, IV, I, I.

I believe my baby got a black cat bone
I believe my baby got a black cat bone
Seems like everything I do, seem like I do it wrong

You see I tried so hard to get along with that woman of mine
You see I tried real hard to get along with that woman of mine
But it seemed like the harder I tried, the more she'd walk around cheatin' and lyin'

I walked down from Dallas Texas, down to Wichita Falls
I got to thinking about that big leg woman, it wasn't no walk at all
I believe my baby got a black cat bone
Look like everything I do, everything I do is wrong

[solos]

I went all the way from Dallas, down to Wichita Falls
I got to thinking about that big leg woman, it wasn't no walk at all
I believe my baby got a black cat bone
Seems like everything I do, everything I do is wrong

I believe my baby got a black cat bone
I believe my baby got a black cat bone
Seems like everything I do, seem like I do it wrong
