Alley Cat Lyrics

You say you're an alley cat

You say you're a tent in a storm

You say I need a house instead

And a man to keep me warm

You tell me you've got to be on your way

And even though I know you're right

Your smile and your style and your kaleidoscope eyes

Keep me up at night

But you're an alley cat

And you can't be tamed

And I know that

But I love you just the same

I'll always love being your lover

I'll always stay your friend

Hard to say goodbye

To your bedroom eyes and sighs

Even if everything eventually will end

Oh, alley cat

Before you slink into the night

Come rub up against me like that

And stay til morning light

Oh alley cat

When you wander wild and free

Through the city streets

Find your way back to me

Oh alley cat

Find your way back to me
