Black cat John Brown, your time will come
Big yellow eyes, full moon is rising
Black cat John Brown, your time will come
Windows and fences, you’ll take no risk

You catch the world, big open eyes
You catch some berries from trees that reach the sky
You'll get older, you can’t catch time
You’ll have a good life and then you'll die

Black cat John Brown, your time will come
Big yellow eyes, full moon is rising
Black cat John Brown, your time will come
Windows and fences, you’ll take no risk
