Song Lyrics

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

I hear the click-clack of your feet on the stairs
I know you`re no scare-eyed honey.
There`ll be a feast if you just come upstairs
But it`s no hanging matter
It`s no capital crime

I can see that you`re fifteen years old
No I don`t want your I.D.
I can see you`re so far from home
But it`s no hanging matter
It`s no capital crime

Oh yeah, you`re a strange stray cat
Oh yeah, don`tcha scratch like that
Oh yeah, you`re a strange stray cat
Bet your mama don`t know you scream like that
I bet your mother don`t know you can spit like that.

You look so weird and you`re so far from home
But you don`t really miss your mother
Don`t look so scared I`m no mad-brained bear
But it`s no hanging matter
It`s no capital crime
Oh, yeah
Woo!

I bet your mama don`t know that you scatch like that
I bet she don`t know you can bite like that.

You say you got a friend, that she`s wilder than you
Why don`t you bring her upstairs
If she`s so wild then she can join in too
It`s no hanging matter
It`s no capital crime

Oh yeah, you`re a strange stray cat
Oh yeah, don`tcha scratch like that
Oh yeah, you`re a strange stray cat
I bet you mama don`t know you can bite like that
I`ll bet she never saw you scratch my back
