[00:00.00]Mean Eyed Cat - Johnny Cash
[00:04.50]Written by：Johnny Cash/John R. Cas
[00:09.00]I gave my woman half my money at the general store
[00:13.25]I said now buy a little groceries and don't spend no more
[00:17.74]Then she paid ten dollars for a ten cent hat
[00:21.48]And got some store-bought cat food for mean eyed cat
[00:26.78]When I give her ten more dollars for a one way ticket
[00:30.92]She was mad as she could be
[00:35.11]Then I bet ten more that if she ever left
[00:39.05]She'd come a crawlin' back to me
[00:59.81]When I woke up this morning and I turned my head
[01:03.61]There wasn't a cotton picking thing on her side of the bed
[01:08.21]I found a little old note where her head belonged
[01:12.07]It said dear John honey baby I'm long gone
[01:17.27]When I heard a whistle blowing and the big wheels a turning
[01:21.34]I was scared as I could be
[01:25.53]I put on my overalls and I headed for town
[01:29.54]I'm going to bring her back with me
[01:49.92]I asked the man down at the station if he'd seen her there
[01:54.12]I told him all about her pretty eyes and long blonde hair
[01:58.67]He spit his tobacco said I'll be dad blamed
[02:02.35]I believe I did see her leaving on the east bound train
[02:07.50]I bought a round trip ticket on the east-bound train
[02:12.00]I was broke as I could be
[02:16.02]But when I come back I got to buy another ticket
[02:20.32]Going to bring her back with me
