Rory Gallagher - Hellcat lyrics

rate me

Well, there's a hellcat, loose cat, hear it wail<br />

It can stop you down the street, you cannot get away<br />

Well, it's gonna get to you, got the demon power<br />

<br />

You got to run, run, brother you know your soul's on fire<br />

You got to run, run, brother you know your soul's on fire<br />

<br />

Well, there's a strange, strange feeling chilling your hands<br />

A shadow in your doorway, freeze you where you stand<br />

You play your dice with the Devil, now it's much too late<br />

<br />

Well, don't you know you got a hellcat on your trail<br />

Well, don't you know you got a hellcat on your trail<br />

<br />

The sound that haunts you from the dark will dawn<br />

Don't go away, no more when the morning comes<br />

There's a step on the stairs, a storm in your sails<br />

<br />

That you know you got a hellcat by the tail<br />

Yeah, you've done and got a hellcat on your trail<br />

Oh yeah<br />

<br />

Well, there's a hellcat, loose cat, hear it moan<br />

Stalking your shadow all night long<br />

It's the darkest feeling this side of hell<br />

<br />

Well, don't you know you got a hellcat by the tail<br />

You know you've got a hellcat by the tail<br />

<br />

Well, hellcat, well, hellcat<br />

Well, hellcat, well, hellcat
