39th. Street

Sunrise on 39th Street,
Buffalo Cat Woman got a new gun
Between her feet,
Bums down at the med center
Watchin’ out for the heat,
It takes a long time
For the sun to come out
On 39th Street,
Where Frick and Frack’s
Is “Sorry We’re Open”
Buffalo Cat Woman
Just standin’ there hopin’
That this is just another sunny day,
That all the other Cats will
Come out to play,
Over at Otto’s Malt Shop
Where you never see a cop,
Just some Cats doin’ Baqua Zhong
Until the Family comes along
Tells them to move on down,
Move on down 39th Street
Where they belong,
Passin’ by some folks who cry
For justice for white mice,
Where another Cat plays the toodeloo
Over red beans and rice,
Buffalo Cat Woman’s got plenty of advice,
To give you,
When the sun comes up,
On 39th Street.
