Hm-mm
People always ask me, they say
"Billy Soul, why do you talk in so many of your songs?"
I say, "Because I've been so many places
And I've seen so many things"
Like the other day
I heard a lady talking to her own man
And what she said, I wanna to share with you
Look, she said
"You've been cheating on me, honey
Ever since I've been with you
And because I love you so much
It's kinda hard for me to quit you
You stay out all night, running the streets
You stay gone all the time
You know that ain't right, the way you treat me
It's really blowing my mind"
She said, "the way you treat me
It's a shame and a pity"
She said, "When you say, scat cat
Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty" (scat cat)
Oh (here kitty, kitty)
Here kitty, kitty (scat cat, here kitty, kitty)
You say that you love me
But I can't tell, 'cause you do me wrong
What do you really feel for me?
'Cause all ain't well, you're about to lose your home
You know I love you, honey
But it needs to be a two-way thing
'Cause all this neglect and disrespect
I can't take that from my man
She said, "Just the other day, a man said I was still pretty"
When you say, "Scat cat"
Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty" (scat cat)
Oh, baby (here kitty, kitty)
Here kitty, kitty (scat cat, here kitty, kitty)
You always say that you love my body
And I feel just like silk
Well, this cat needs to be loved and hugged
Then served a little warm milk
You come home fussing and leave home cussing
You treat me so unkind
No kiss and no touching
It's about to blow my mind
She said, "Just the other day
I had to turn down your best friend, Smitty"
She said, when you say, "Scat cat"
Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty" (scat cat)
Oh, baby (here kitty, kitty)
Here kitty, kitty (scat cat, here kitty, kitty)
She said, "This cat needs some lovin'
This cat needs some huggin'
When was the last time I had a good rubbin'? (Talking 'bout the meow)
(Talking 'bout me, though) oh, baby
If you don't love me (scat cat)
Some other man show him (here kitty, kitty)
'Cause I'm tired of you out there giving (scat cat)
Giving other women my thrill (here kitty, kitty)
You leave me at home (scat cat)
Like I'm somewhere at large (here kitty, kitty)
I can't stand it (scat cat)
You're leaving me lost, darling (here kitty, kitty)
When you say, "Scat cat"
Another man say, "Here kitty, kitty"
Sometimes I'd be tempted to go
But I don't, because I love you so
Scat cat
Here kitty, kitty
When you push me away (scat cat)
Another man say (here kitty, kitty)
