I got a cat named Midnight round here I only feed him tuna fish and beer Once we split a 5th of wine Now he wants wine all the time I gotta cat named named Midnight round here I got steel in my knees from the war I don't go to church anymore That blood and stuff gets pretty rough I guess I've seen blood enough I got steel in my knees from the war It's true, I get jumpy sometimes Now and then I might forget my lines The other day, in the checkout lane I signed a check with my old name It's true I get jumpy sometimes I met a girl out walking last night I tried to kiss her waiting for the light She said she went to Beauty School I told her I thought that was cool This girl I met walking last night When that girl and me were talking later on All my inhibitions were gone Even a crippled bird will sing I think I told her everything When that girl and me were talking later on These days I keep a watch out for the gun All because the jury was hung The jury foreman, he just smiled The k**er tapped danced down the aisle These days, I keep a watch out for the gun I lost everything because I told them who the shooter was
