I had a dream last night God knows a black cat had crossed my trail I had a dream last night God knows a black cat had crossed my trail You know I don't want you to Sweep me with no broom 'Cause I'm afraid I might go to jail When my right hand itch People, you know I'm gettin' money for sure You know when my right hand itch People, I'm gettin' money for sure You know when my Left eye get to jumpin' Somebody's just got to go I went home last night I lay down 'cross my bed I woke up this mornin' God knows Broken, hungry too, I said, oh Lord, this black cat have crossed my dream You know sometime I wonder B.G. What in the world's gonna happen to me Well, I went down to the cemetery Got down on my bended knees I asked the good Lord above To take this spell off of me and I said, 'Woah' You know a black cat have crossed my dream You know I begin to wonder B.G. What in the world is gonna happen to me
