Blind Lemon Jefferson Maltese Cat Blues Lyrics

Rats is mean in my kitchen : and I lost my Maltese cat
I'm going to make things right with my good gal : man and
it's tight like that

I'm going to start walking : walk the shoes clean off of
my feet
Just thinking about my mama : and man that woman sure is
sweet

I ain't got no suitcase : I don't have a one bottle of gin
I've got to stay drunk to keep warm : because my clothes
is so thin

Long lonesome train : come passing me a‑flying
I was thinking about my mama : and I didn't pay that
train no mind

When you get a‑home : buy a Maltese cat
And a good strong brownskin : man it's tight like that
