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 Ballouoooooo.
Cat Ballouoooooo.

It's a hangin' day in Wolf City, Wyomin',
Wolf City, Wyomin', eighteen ninety four,

They're gonna drop Cat Ballou
Thru' 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 thru' and thru'.

Cat Ballou, Cat Ballou,
She's mean and evil thru' and thru'.

With her outlaw band they're now tellin' the story,
Now tellin' the story how she rode the plain,

The wildest gal in the West
Since Calamity Jane.

And today's the day that she's goin' to glory,
She's goin' to glory for the way she sinned,

They'll be a speedin' her soul
On the wayward wind.

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 thru' and thru'.

Cat Ballou, Cat Ballou,
She's mean and evil thru' and thru'.

Cat Ballou, Cat Ballou,
She's mean and evil thru' and thru'.
