[Verse 1]
Well now, friends just lend an ear
For you're now about to hear
The ballad of Cat Ballou
It's a song that's newly made
And professus and the shade
And the sunrise kid are singin' it for you
Cat Ballou, Cat Ballou
[Bridge]
It's a hangin' day in Wolf City, Wyoming
Wolf city, Wyoming, 1894
They're gonna drop Cat Ballou
Through the gallows floor
She killed a man in Wolf City, Wyoming
Wolf City, Wyoming, killed a man, it's true
And that is why they're hangin'
Hangin' Cat Ballou
[Verse 2]
She has the smile of an angel
(Fights like the devil)
The eyes of an angel
(Bites like the devil)
The face of an angel
(I say she's the devil)
She's mean and evil through and through
Cat Ballou, cat Ballou
She's mean and evil through and through
[Bridge]
With her outlaw band, they're now tellin' a story
Now tellin' a story how she rode the plain
The wildest gal in the West
Since Calamity Jane
And today's the day that she's goin' to glory
She's goin' to glory for the way she sinned
They'll be a-speeding her soul
On a wayward wind
[Outro]
She has the smile of an angel
(Fights like the devil)
The eyes of an angel
(Bites like the devil)
The face of an angel
(I say she's the devil)
She's mean and evil through and through
Cat Ballou (Cat Ballou)
Cat Ballou (Cat Ballou)
She's mean and evil through and through
Cat Ballou, Cat Ballou
She's mean and evil through and through
