lyannas's video: Stevie Nicks - Cathouse Blues

Originally an early demo, 'Cathouse Blues' was officially recorded and released on Stevie's most recent album, '24 Karat Gold: Songs From The Vault". "Cathouse Blues" is the oldest song on 24 Karat Gold, and it's a very unusual style for you, almost ragtime." "-- It is unusual. I think I wrote it in 1969, maybe '68. It's about some cartoon cats. They're hanging out on a fence and -- I don't want to say hooker cats, because they weren't that, but they were definitely street cats. When it says "blue-gray eyes," I think that must have been about Lindsey, because he has blue-gray eyes. At 15 and a half, I fell in love with a really handsome boy in Arcadia High School in Los Angeles. Thank God for that, because even though my relationship with Lindsey didn't really end well, the passionate feeling I had for this man -- who I still know very well, and, in my own way, will always be crazy about-- he brought out this love song." I got the Cathouse Blues I wear the highest of high heel shoes Whoa, darling, it's hard to be surrounded Where the women are lazy, And the men are rude I got the cat walk, don't talk blues I creep on cat's feet, I don't speak loose Yourself in velvet, Forget we ever met I got the closed in, The Cathouse Blues Blue gray eyes that say I guess you don't remember I guess that I was younger To say the cat sleeps alone, Sleeps only in the sun But she'll awake tonight And she'll be gone Singing the Cathouse Blues I need some new red velvet shoes I'm still a dreamer's fancy Well they say I'm pretty classy I'm just a feeling silky cat come true I'm just a feeling silky cat come true I'm just a feeling silky cat come true Oh yeah I'm still a dreamer's fancy They say I'm pretty classy I'm just a feeling silky cat come true I'm just a feeling silky cat come true I'm just a feeling silky cat come true
