It was a night to remember, a fire down below Couldn't hide from the heat there was nowhere to go And the cat on the roof, she's running for cover Deep in the jungle of a hard rockin summer
I was a young Romeo tryin' to find Juliet I was hot on the trail of my own silhouette And the cat on the roof, she's crazy from hunger She waits in the shadows of a hard rockin summer
And then the sky started falling and night hit the ground Thought I heard someone calling, the ghost of a sound Now the cat on the roof has captured the hunter Deep in the jungle of a hard rockin summer
It was a night to remember, you know what I mean Now it's late in September and she's just a dream And the cat on the roof, she's back under cover And I'm just a prisoner of a hard rockin summer
