An Original song played on my Cotton Eyed Joes 4 String CBG

Lyrics:

Black Cat Sittin' up on a fence
Let her walk on by
She's been talkin' to me ever since
What a lucky guy

I saw a damsel that was in distress
so I asked for her name
She was distracted by her loveliness
when it started to rain

I made a left right into the clouds
but I never made a stop
I just kept walking on that high road down
waitin' for a drop

I saw a damsel that was in distress
let her walk on by
She was distracted by her loveliness
what a lucky guy

I'm on the high road down

I'm walking on that high road
down, down, down

Thanks a lot guys, I wrote this song years ago and I hadn't seen it in a long time. We reunited and this time around on a CBG it felt good playing it. Thanks for the kind comments.

   Pretty song on a nice sounding git.   Good lyrics, tone and singing.  I like  it a lot.   Cris, I think you are an 'old soul' and a good one.  

   I would like to see the lyrics posted.   (I am hearing impaired old bastard, but I try not to say,"What?  What?" )
