Lyrics
Just when I thought I was all alone
Taking a moment for my own
Something told me in the rocky terrain
I was no longer at the top of the food chain
I had a little spat with a wildcat
You may think I must be crazy
Taking a little safari of my own
I guess I'm just the kind of lady
Feeling life down to the bone
Without a map, yeah wildcat
Ay, ay, ay...
Imagine that, a wildcat
And I found the bones to prove
That that cat don't always lose
And you'd think by now I knew (so well)
A little adventure can have its dues
When you have a little spat with a wildcat
Well I might as well, you know it's awfully swell
To get a little off track, put that wind at your back
And I got a little off track from that wildcat
Ay, ay, ay... I got a little off track
From that wildcat
Well I might as well, you know it's awfully swell
To get a little off track,
put that wind at your back
And I got a little off track
I might be lunch, imagine that
Well I got a little off track from that wildcat
