Ain't superstitious
Black cat crossed my trail
I ain't superstitious
But a black cat crossed my trail
Bad luck ain't got me so far
And I won't let it stop me now
The dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
And that ain't all
Dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
Mmm-mmm
This is a mean old world to live in
And I can't face it all by myself, at all
[Instrumental Break]
And, dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
The dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
I got a feelin' about the future
And it ain't too good, I know that
I know, I know, I know
[Instrumental Break]
Ain't superstitious
But black cat crossed my trail
(I said it so many times before)
Ain't superstitious
A black cat crossed my trail
Bad luck ain't got me so far
And you know I ain't gonna let it stop me now
Come on
[Instrumental Outro]
Black cat crossed my trail
I ain't superstitious
But a black cat crossed my trail
Bad luck ain't got me so far
And I won't let it stop me now
The dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
And that ain't all
Dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
Mmm-mmm
This is a mean old world to live in
And I can't face it all by myself, at all
[Instrumental Break]
And, dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
The dogs begin to bark
All over my neighbourhood
I got a feelin' about the future
And it ain't too good, I know that
I know, I know, I know
