1-3
(w) Jack Harlen (m) Frank Bjorn (P) Bent Fabric; vocal version by David Thome. NARAS Award winner (CR) Peggy Lee
Chorus 1:
He goes on the prowl each night like an Alley Cat
Lookin’ for some new delight like an Alley Cat
She can’t trust him out of sight
There’s no doubt of that
He just don’t know wrong from right like an Alley Cat

Bridge
He meets ’em (Mee-ow)
And loves ’em (Mee-ow)
And leaves ’em (Mee-ow)
That’s what Catsanova does
It’s no way to treat a pal
She should tell him, “Scat!”
Aren’t you sorry for that gal with her Alley Cat

Chorus 2:
He goes on the prowl each night like an Alley Cat
Lookin’ for some new delight like an Alley Cat
He doesn’t know what faithful means
There’s no doubt of that
He’s too busy makin’ scenes like an Alley Cat
