All the lonely nights I spend alone, Never around to love me
You're always gone Cause you're hangin out, Breakin' the rules
Oh the man has come Looking for you You're a rebel now Don't give a damn
Always carrying on With the gang I'm trying to tell you boy
It's a mistake I'm trying to tell you boy Before it's too late

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 carrying on
With the gang
I'm tryin' to tell ya, boy
It's a mistake
You won't realize
'Til it's too late
Don't understand
Why you insist
On ways of living such a dangerous life
Time after time, you stay away
And I just know that you're telling me lies
Black cat, nine lives
Short days, long nights
Livin' on the edge
Not afraid to die
Heart beat, 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 the chance
Scheming, planning 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
Aw, better change
Makes no sense to me
Your crazy ways
Don't understand
Why you insist
On ways of living such a dangerous life
Time after time, you stay away
And I just know that you're telling me lies
Not afraid to die, guitar
Black cat
Black cat
Man, I don't understand your ways
Livin' on the edge
Don't understand
Why you insist
On ways of living such a dangerous life
Time after time, you stay away
And I just know that you're telling me lies
black cat, nine lives
Short days, long nights
Livin' on the edge
Not afraid to die (talking about me)
Heart beat real strong
But not for long
Better watch your step
Or you're gonna die (sing it up)
Black cats, nine lives
Short days, long nights (yeah, yeah)
Livin' on the edge
Not afraid to die (no, don't don't die)
Heart beat real strong
But not for long
Better watch your step
Or you're gonna die
Black cats
Livin' on the
Heartbeat
Better watch your step
