the cat was a junkie

ya never know who your friends are

til you get through to the person within

and if you investigate too far

you might be surprised at the bag that they're in

alvin never told me he got high

then i heard that he got wasted

scorin' from a guy who issued mainline

as a sideline

i didn't know that the cat was a junkie

he never led me to believe he was anything else but the son of a banker

you've got to be highly suspicious

you must be aware of the pupils and size

and food becomes highly delicious

just count all those sara lee cakes that he buys

everything is melody and vibes

rufus

thomas

on the welfare

everyone has gone and left him helpless

in a corner

i didn't know that the cat was a junkie

he never led me to believe he was anything else but the son of a banker

i didn't know that the cat was a junkie

he never led me to believe he was anything else but the son of a banker

ohhh
