Grab it While it's Hot

lyrics

Alley Cat

I wish I could be faithful
I really wish
I wish I could be trusted
I really do
Whenever I try it
I always fail
I have the face of an angel
But the morals of an alley cat

Oh, oh, I am an alley cat
Oh, oh, I am an alley cat

Where you touch me
No one else does
It’s a hidden place
Between my soul and my heart
But if you ask me
To be only yours
I will disappoint you
‘cause I am alley cat

Oh, oh, I am an alley cat
Oh, oh, I am an alley cat

Give me one good reason to be
The bird in the cage that you want me to
I will die singing but I will certainly die
Some things can not be changed
It’s in my nature to be free
And this is how I want to remain

Got to accept me this way
Got to get what I have to give
This is who I am
That’s all I can do

Whenever I try it
I always fail
I have the face of an angel
But the morals of an alley cat

Oh, oh, I am an alley cat
Oh, oh, I am an alley cat

Whenever I try it
I always fail
This is who I am
Got the face of an angel
But I am an alley cat
