Lyrics:

Went home last night, heard a knock, I asked my wife, 'What was that?'
Says, I went home last night, heard a knock and I asked my wife, 'What was that?'
She says, 'Man, don't be suspicious, that ain't nothing but a cat'

Said, I traveled this world all over, mama, taken all kind of chance
Says, I traveled this world all over, mama, taken all kind of chance
I ain't never come home before, seen a cat wearing a pair of pants

Said, they wouldn't call him Cat Man, if he come around in the day
Wouldn't call him Cat Man, if he come around in the day
But he wait till late at night, when he can steal my cream away

I want that Cat Man stay away from my house, oh Lord, when I'm out
I want that Cat Man stay away from my house, Lordy, when I'm out
'Cause I b'lieve he's causin' my little woman, wearing the mattress out

Lord, I walked in my front door, acting quiet as a lamb
Says, I walked in my front door, acting quiet as a lamb
I never raised disturbment till I heard my back door slam
