Lyrics

You Chicago women run hand in hand
You run around with one another's man
There's a dead cat on the line
There's a dead cat on the line
I ain't lyin', you the cheatin' kind
There's a dead cat on the line
You come home at night talking out your head
You have to take a bath before you go to bed
There's a dead cat on the line
There's a dead cat on the line
I ain't lyin', you the cheatin' kind
There's a dead cat on the line
You in such a sniffer, getting mighty strong
When you shake hands you've got to hold it so long
There's a dead cat on the line (somewhere)
There's a dead cat on the line (it's there)
I ain't lyin', you the cheatin' kind
There's a dead cat on the line
She was standing in church with her old man
I saw you when you tickled her in her hand
There's a dead cat on the line
There's a dead cat on the line
I ain't lyin', you the cheatin' kind
There's a dead cat on the line
Play it now
You brown-skin, your husband ain't fair
Your children are yelling, got curly hair
There's a dead cat on the line
There's a dead cat on the line
I ain't lyin', you the cheatin' kind
There's a dead cat on the line
Early this morning 'bout half past four
I've seen Bill Johnson comin' out your door
There's a dead cat on the line (somewhere)
There's a dead cat on the line (sure, hon)
I ain't lyin', you the cheatin' kind
There's a dead cat on the line
There's one thing I can't understand
You broke up your home and quit your regular man
There's a dead cat on the line (oh yeah)
There's a dead cat on the line
I ain't lyin', you the cheatin' kind
There's a dead cat on the line
