Cat Power - Naked, If I Want To (Jukebox version)

Would you let me walk down your street
Naked if I want to?
Can I fire fireworks on the fourth of every single July?
Can I buy an amplifier, oh, on time?
My sweet time

Well I ain't got no money
I will pay this time
And I ain't got no money
But I will pay you before I die

And would you let me walk down your street
Naked if I want to?
Can I fire fireworks on the fourth of every single July?
Can I buy an aeroplane while i'm high in all the sky?
And I got no mercy
I will pay this time
And I got no mercy
I will pay you before I die

(originally recorded by Moby Grape)

Cat Power - Kingsport Town

The winter wind

Is blowing so strong

My hands have got

No gloves

Wish to my sole

That I could have

The boy I'm dreaming of

Don't you remember me, babe

I remember you quite well

Caused me to leave

All of New York town

With a high sheriff on my tail

A high sheriff on my tail, boys,

High sheriff on my trail.

All because I've fallen for

A curly headed dark-eyed boy

Who's gonna stroke

Your coal black hair

And your sandy colored skin

Who's gonna walk you side by side

And tell you everything is alright

Who's gonna look

You straight in the eye

And hold your bad luck hand

Who's gonna walk you

Who's gonna talk to you

And who's gonna be your woman

The winter wind

Is blowing so strong

My hands have got

No gloves

Don't you remember me, babe

I remember you quite well

(originally recorded by Bob Dylan)

Cat Power - Wild Is The Wind

Love me, love me
Say you do

Let me fly away
With you

We're creatures of the wind
Wild is the wind

Give me more than one grasp
To satisfy this hungryness
We're creatures of the wind
Wild is the wind

You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolines
You kiss me
With your kiss my life begins

Like a leaf clings to a tree
Baby please cling to me
We're creatures of the wind
Wild is the wind

You touch me
I hear the sound of mandolins
And you kiss me
With your kiss my life begins

Love me, love me
Say you do

Let me fly away
With you

(originally recorded by Johnny Mathis)

Cat Power - Troubled Waters

I must be
One of the devil's daughters
They look at me with scorn
I'll never hear their horn

Sometimes
It's like chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In shame
When people see me
They scandalize my name

I'm going down
To the devil's water
I'm gonna drown
In that troubled water
It's coming 'round my soul
It's way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one

I must be
One of the devil's daughters
They look at me with scorn
I'll never hear their horn

Sometimes
It's like chains
Sometimes I hang my head
In shame
When people see me
They scandalize my name

I'm going down
To the devil's water
I'm gonna drown
In that troubled water
It's coming 'round my soul
It's way beyond control
I must be one
I must be one
I must be

(originally recorded by Mae West with Duke Ellington's Orchestra)
