Rockinest Cat In Town Lyrics

Drivin' down the road just the other night
I saw a rockin' cat in my headlight
Gave him a ride, he had a place to be
Meetin' a man named Ed you see
He said he's going to be the rockinest cat in town
He started humming a tune called "Baby Let's Play house"
Said a cat named Black would play it on the old doghouse
Said he's goin' to play it on T.V.
That's when the people all would see
He's goin to be the rockinest cat in town

The rockinest cat in town
Tear them barriers down
A white man singin' the blues
All the kids goin' to make him the news
Cause he's a rockin' cat, the rockinest cat in town
Dropped him of went home, started watchin' a show
Said the program was from 40 years ago
I watched Ed sullivan the host
That's when I turned white as a ghost
Watchin thr rockin', rockinest cat in town
He was the rockinest cat in town, he tore them barriers down
He was a white man singing the blues,
All the cats are going to make him the news
He was the rockin' cat, the rockinest cat in town
But I'd just met the rockinest cat in town
Who was that cat, the rockinest cat in town
