Lyrics
[verse]
Walking down the alley with a cool cat's swagger
Moonlight on the fence post, shadow like a dagger
Nobody tells me where I ought to roam
This whole city is my second home
[chorus]
Watch me strut, watch me glide
Slippin' through the night with a lonesome pride
Nine lives and not a single care
I go my own way, I get everywhere
[verse]
Trash can lids are ringing like a midnight bell
Every corner here I know so well
Got no leash and got no clock to keep
Dancing while the rest of the city sleeps
[chorus]
Watch me strut, watch me glide
Slippin' through the night with a lonesome pride
Nine lives and not a single care
I go my own way, I get everywhere
[bridge]
Some folks chase the sun, some folks chase the moon
I just chase the rhythm of my own smooth tune
Cool as a shadow, sly as they come
Strutting to a beat that's all my own
[chorus]
Watch me strut, watch me glide
Slippin' through the night with a lonesome pride
Nine lives and not a single care
I go my own way, I get everywhere
