Black Cat Lyrics

Chris Cornell

Black cat, black cats gone
Gone for good, gone for long
Dont believe that he left me alone
And I hope he dont come home
Looking back, the black (past)
Trust him once, lost my map
Trust again to save my bones
And I never made it back
Black cat, black cats gone
Gone for good, gone for long
Dont believe I made it home
And I hope he dont come home
Never had anything
Never lose and I never win
Lost my only love, never get her back
Theres a black cat on my back
Black cat, black cats gone
Gone for good, gone for long
Dont believe that he left me alone
And I hope he dont come home
Beg for mercy, laying low
Down where the poor dogs go
Lick my wounds, when (I go home)
Death is spiriling down
Death is low
Black cat, black cats gone
Gone for good, gone for long
Cant believe that he left me alone
And I hope he dont come home
Every day, every hour
Another babys born
Going to hang my head, (dry and blind)
til the black cat drags it home
Black cat, black cats gone
Gone for good, gone for long
Cant believe that he left me alone
And I hope he dont come home
Beg for mercy, Im laying low
Down where the poor dogs go
Lick my wounds, when I grow old
The sun is down and gone
The sun is down
The sun is down and gone
The sun is down
The sun is down and gone
The sun is down
The sun is down and gone
Black cat
The sun is down and gone
Hope he dont come home
I hope he dont come home
I hope he dont come home
