He came in late
With rain on his coat
Sat by the sugar jar
And never wrote
Tail like a comma
Eyes like a dare
He stole my ashtray
Then sat like he cared
I said, "Well, hello"
He blinked twice slow
Purring in a minor key
Like he knew me
Black cat at the counter
Black cat, stay awhile
Black cat at the counter
You wear that secret smile
Black cat at the counter
You got me under spell
Black cat at the counter
And I don't mind it well
Don't mind it well
He tapped the glass
With one velvet paw
The barman laughed
Like he'd seen that before
He nipped my ribbon
He drank my stare
Then curled in the corner
Like he lived back there
I said, "Tell me true"
He just preened and drew
A little moon on my sleeve
Made me believe
Black cat at the counter
Black cat, stay awhile
Black cat at the counter
You wear that secret smile
Black cat at the counter
You got me under spell
Black cat at the counter
And I don't mind it well
Don't mind it well
When the room goes thin
And the lamps grow pale
He slips through the silence
Like a late-night tale
One glance, one twitch
One little sway
I swear that cat
Could lead me away
Black cat at the counter
Black cat, stay awhile
Black cat at the counter
You wear that secret smile
Black cat at the counter
You got me under spell
Black cat at the counter
And I don't mind it well
Don't mind it well
Black cat at the counter
Take my heart as well
Black cat at the counter
Oh, what the hell
What the hell
