Red Cat Till I Die - Ry Cooder[00:00:00]
Well I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm a Red Cat through and through[00:00:16]
Now you can't turn me yellow and you can't make me blue[00:00:21]
You can't make me do things I know it's wrong to do[00:00:26]
I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm telling you[00:00:31]
Well a bunch of sneakin' deputies they came a-snooping round[00:00:36]
Then they grabbed me in the alley whilst I was laying down[00:00:41]
And then they threw me in the wagon and then they ran me in[00:00:45]
Then they locked me in the jailhouse with all my hobo friends[00:00:50]
Saying Where's that rat named Lefty [00:00:55]
And where's that frog named Tom [00:00:57]
Been agitating lately[00:01:00]
And spreading great alarm[00:01:02]
Now the cows walked out this morning[00:01:05]
And now the hens won't lay[00:01:07]
Said You're going to wreck our country[00:01:09]
And it ain't the American Way[00:01:12]
I ain't no strikebreaker and I ain't no stoolie rat[00:01:14]
Won't squeal on Tom and Lefty I won't say where they're at[00:01:19]
You can't scare me copper and I don't care what you do[00:01:24]
I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm telling you[00:01:29]
Now you think you're hard-boiled you're just yellow inside[00:01:52]
My daddy always warned me now I know he's right[00:01:57]
You're just cowards hidin' behind a little tin star[00:02:02]
And the people are starting to realize what a bunch of clowns you are[00:02:07]
Well I might have been a banker without the least excuse[00:02:12]
Now I might have been the President but tell me what's the use[00:02:16]
Might have been an FBI man but I ain't no Peepin' Tom[00:02:21]
Then I might have been a deputy and put my white sheet on[00:02:26]
But I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm a Red Cat through and through[00:02:31]
I won't fight your rich man's war and kill poor folks for you[00:02:36]
Now you can't make me do things that I know it's wrong to do[00:02:41]
I'm a Red Cat till I die I'm telling you[00:02:45]
