Song lyrics

One two three, huh

All the lonely nights I spend alone
Never 'round to love me, you're always gone
'Cause you're hangin' out, breakin' the rules
Oh the man has come lookin' for you

(You're a rebel now) don't give a damn
(Always carryin' on) with the gang
(I'm trying to tell you boy) it's a mistake
(You won't realize) till it's too late

Don't understand why you insist
On ways of livin' such a dangerous life
Time after time you stay awake
And I just know that you're tellin' me lies

Black cat, nine lives, short days, long nights
Livin' on the edge, not afraid to die
Heartbeat real strong but not for long
Better watch your step or you're gonna die

You're so together boy but just at a glance
You'll do anything if given a chance
Schemin', plannin' lies to get what you need
So full of promises that you never keep

(Don't you tell yourself) that it's okay
(Sick and tired of) all of your games
(And you want me to stay) oh better change
(Makes no sense to me) your crazy ways

Don't understand why you insist
On ways of livin' such a dangerous life, ooh
Time after time you stay awake
And I just know that you're tellin' me lies

Not afraid to die, guitar

Black cat
Black cat, met another one who stay in your ways
Livin' on the edge

Don't understand why you insist
On ways of livin' such a dangerous life
Time after time you stay awake
And I just know that you're tellin' me lies
Fellows

Black cat, nine lives, short days, long nights (ow)
Livin' on the edge, not afraid to die (talkin' 'bout the man)
Heartbeat real strong but not for long
Better watch your step or you're gonna die (sing it up)
Black cat, nine lives, short days, long nights (yeah, yeah)
Livin' on the edge, not afraid to die (no, don't, don't you die)
Heartbeat real strong but not for long
Better watch your step or you're gonna die
