Black cat sitting on a fence all day, Watching’ those little birds sing and play… Oh, oh, isn’t that livin’ . My old man left, didn’t say where. Found him in the next state with another wife there! Oh, oh, isn’t that life… Woah, oh isn’t that livin’ You do what you can and you do your best to do it right Sometimes you cut your losses and you choose to survive Oh, oh isn’t that right… Oh, isn’t that life. Well I heard the cat say to the bird, “Won’t you come a little closer, tell you what I heard.” Said the bird to the cat, ”You know I think I’ll pass, Gonna fly away, gonna save my… save my life!” CHO SOLOS-full cycle Well I found myself stuck in the same old place, feelin’ lonesome yearning for a friendly face Oh, oh isn’t that livin’ And the ground fell out from under my feet, got to find my wings, got to feel the heat Oh, oh isn’t that life Gonna catch the next train out of town. Don’t come lookin’ for me babe, I won’t be hangin’ round. Oh, oh, isn’t that livin’ Gonna be the bird, I won’t be the cat, Gonna lift my wings- whatchu think of that? Oh, oh, isn’t that life CHO and round
Wow, yeah. Whatta life. Yeah. ❤
Nice song.

Black cat sitting on a fence all day, Watching’ those little birds sing and play…
Oh, oh, isn’t that livin’ .
My old man left, didn’t say where.
Found him in the next state with another wife there!
Oh, oh, isn’t that life…
Woah, oh isn’t that livin’
You do what you can and you do your best to do it right
Sometimes you cut your losses and you choose to survive
Oh, oh isn’t that right… Oh, isn’t that life.
Well I heard the cat say to the bird,
“Won’t you come a little closer, tell you what I heard.”
Said the bird to the cat, ”You know I think I’ll pass,
Gonna fly away, gonna save my… save my life!”
CHO
SOLOS-full cycle
Well I found myself stuck in the same old place, feelin’ lonesome yearning for a friendly face
Oh, oh isn’t that livin’
And the ground fell out from under my feet, got to find my wings, got to feel the heat
Oh, oh isn’t that life
Gonna catch the next train out of town.
Don’t come lookin’ for me babe, I won’t be hangin’ round.
Oh, oh, isn’t that livin’
Gonna be the bird, I won’t be the cat,
Gonna lift my wings- whatchu think of that?
Oh, oh, isn’t that life
CHO and round

Oh, oh, isn’t that livin’ .
My old man left, didn’t say where.
Found him in the next state with another wife there!
Oh, oh, isn’t that life…
Woah, oh isn’t that livin’
You do what you can and you do your best to do it right
Sometimes you cut your losses and you choose to survive
Oh, oh isn’t that right… Oh, isn’t that life.

“Won’t you come a little closer, tell you what I heard.”
Said the bird to the cat, ”You know I think I’ll pass,
