Cats Without Claws

It's a windy night Of first and main Of any city Of a hundred names Spirits fly high and the sparks fly low And the cats are all creeping out the back door slow And the cats are out, gonna harmonize They're headed for cool street on the main line And here comes that joe serpentine The life of a cat can leave you far behind They're just cats without claws Never had a good reason Never had a cause It's hard to be yourself When everyone else is around There's always someone out there Trying to pull you down You're sitting on the fence crying out to the moon The day goes by too fast and the night comes too soon You bet your life and you sell your soul Give it all up for beggar's gold And the hidden city has its own laws Produces a species cats without claws They're just cats without claws Never had a good reason Never had a cause Oh, they're just cats without claws Never had a good reason Never had a cause Oh, here they come again Singing songs in a melody Do, do, do, do, do Oh, oh, it's tough life, tough life, tough life And the streets are full of pain Specially when it's calling out your name It's hard on the one who doesn't sacrifice The things the world has to offer nice Come inside, spend some time, stay alive It'll take your heart and it'll steal your mind Oh, they're just cats without claws Never had a good reason Never had a cause Oh, they're just cats without claws Never had a good reason Never had a cause Oh, oh, oh, oh --- Cats Without Claws - Donna Summer
