Rats is mean in my kitchen : and I lost my Maltese cat
I'm going to make things right with my good gal : man and 
it's tight like that
I'm going to start walking : walk the shoes clean off of 
my feet
Just thinking about my mama : and man that woman sure is 
sweet
I ain't got no suitcase : I don't have a one bottle of 
gin
I've got to stay drunk to keep warm : because my clothes 
is so thin
Long lonesome train : come passing me a?flying
I was thinking about my mama : and I didn't pay that 
train no mind
When you get a?home : buy a Maltese cat
And a good strong brownskin : man it's tight like that
