A Man Gets To Thinkin' performed by Charlie Rich

(Don Black / Elmer Bernstein)

A man gets to thinkin'
When his kids are growin'
He sees the years goin'
But what's to be said

A man gets to thinkin'
He feels his mind wander
He looks back to ponder
The life that he's lived

He thinks of the seasons
He's wasted by not bein' there
What good is a mem'ry
That loved ones can't share

A man gets to thinkin'
Of days yet before him
If time will ignore him
He'll know what to do
He'll stay close to you
Till his thinkin' is through

(Cat Ballou)

The Ballad Of Cat Ballou performed by Nat King Cole & Stubby Kaye

(Jerry Livingston / Mack David)

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 Professor Sam the Shade
And the Sunrise Kid are singin' it for you
Cat Ballou, Cat Ballou
Cat Ball-ou-ou-ou

It's a hangin' day in Wolf City, Wyomin'
Wolf City, Wyomin', eighteen-ninety-four
They're gonna drop Cat Ballou
Through the gallows floor

She killed a man in Wolf City, Wyomin'
Wolf City, Wyomin', killed a man it's true
And that is why they're a-hangin'
Hangin' Cat Ballou

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 Ball-ou-ou-ou
She's mean and evil through and through

(Pray, Jezebel, pray)
(Pray, Jezebel, pray)
(If ye would seek salvation)
(Pray, Jezebel, pray)
Cat Ballou
(Pray, Jezebel, pray)
Cat Ballou
(If ye would seek salvation)
Cat Ballou
(Pray, Jezebel, pray)
Cat Ballou
Cat Ballou
Cat Ball-ou-ou-ou

Cat, your time has come, as you stand on the brink
It's sure makin' you think 'bout your life of sin
How come they're now gonna hang you
And how did you begin

Cat Ballou, she lived in Wolf City, Wyomin'
And folks here in Wyomin' live high off the hog
That brand new firm Sears and Roebuck
Send them their catalogue

It's an upright town with kind (Yeah!), wonderful people (Oh?)
Reliable people (Sure!), friendly as can be (So they say!)
When they say "Howdy", they mean it (Hah!)
Yes, they're neighbourly (Yup-yup-yup-yup-yup-yup-yup!)

If only Cat had behaved
These folks would befriend her
If Cat had behaved
Their hearts they would lend her
But Cat was depraved
To Hell now they'll send her
She could have lived like others do
Cat Ballou, wicked through and through
They'll now be hangin' Cat Ballou

Then there came to town a gun deadly and frightnin'
A gun quicker than lightnin', fastest gun you've seen
It was the gun in the hand of
Steel-eyed Kid Shelleen

Just one look at him had folks startin' to booger
Wild, wild as a cougar, proud and fierce and mean
There was no man who was tougher
Tough as Kid Shelleen

He had the eyes of a killer
Cold as a devil
The look of a killer
The look of a devil
The face of a killer
That man was the Devil
Just wild and ornery and mean
Kid Shelleen, Kid Shell-ee-ee-een
The fastest gun you've ever seen

There are teardrops in her heart
But they can't make her cry
There are teardrops in her heart
But they can't make her cry
She's lost all the kin that she's known
And the tears will turn into stone
All the teardrops in her heart
'Cause they can't make her cry

It's not very hard to weep
When you're a little girl
It's not very hard to weep
When you're a little girl
But they made a little girl feel
Like a woman made of steel
Makes no difference how they try
They'll never make her cry

So that mournful day
Became part of a legend
The real start of a legend
Known as Cat Ballou
They'll never make her cry
The day the law filled her heart
With a hate that grew
Makes no difference how they try
They'll never make her cry

When you have no tears
Then you've gotta have somethin'
Hate really is somethin'
Blood is what you need
They'll never make her cry
And Cat Ballou made her mind up
To make this country bleed
Makes no difference how they try
They'll never make her cry

It took a crafty female brain
To stage the hold-up of a train
She planned it to the last detail
Until it couldn't fail
This dashing, daring desperado
Led her gang with cool bravado
They would follow where she'd lead
They made the country bleed

Round and round and round they went
Till man and gal and beast were spent
Round and round and round they rode
Oh, what an episode

So she rode away, just where now is a mystery
But Cat rode into history and her legend grew
She was the queen of the outlaws
Her Highness Cat Ballou
Cat Ballou, Cat Ball-ou-ou-ou
Well, our story now is through
Cat Ballou, Cat Ball-ou-ou-ou
We'll say farewell to Cat Ballou
