Witness

I got a cat named Midnight round here
 I only feed him tuna fish and beer
 Once we split a 5th of wine
 Now he wants wine all the time
 I gotta cat named named Midnight round here
 I got steel in my knees from the war
 I don't go to church anymore
 That blood and stuff gets pretty rough
 I guess I've seen blood enough
 I got steel in my knees from the war
 It's true, I get jumpy sometimes
 Now and then I might forget my lines
 The other day, in the checkout lane
 I signed a check with my old name
 It's true I get jumpy sometimes
 I met a girl out walking last night
 I tried to kiss her waiting for the light
 She said she went to Beauty School
 I told her I thought that was cool
 This girl I met walking last night
 When that girl and me were talking later on
 All my inhibitions were gone
 Even a crippled bird will sing
 I think I told her everything
 When that girl and me were talking later on
 These days I keep a watch out for the gun
 All because the jury was hung
 The jury foreman, he just smiled
 The killer tapped danced down the aisle
 These days, I keep a watch out for the gun
 I lost everything because
 I told them who the shooter was
