Fast to the Claw

They said she came from
A long line of white trash
They said she was dangerous
As a cornered wildcat

But love can be blind
And I heard not a word
I tried to tame something wild
All it got me was hurt

Chorus:
But a wildcat’s love
Can stick in your craw
So pretty and wild
And fast to the claw

She started out so sweet
Then turned on me so fast
Just like a little kitten
Turns into a wildcat

I’ve got bites on my heart
And scratches on my love
These days it’s hard just to live
Even harder to love

Bridge:
In the dead of night
I can hear her howl
The familiar sound
Of a wild thing on the prowl

Chorus:
But a wildcat’s love
Can stick in your craw
So pretty and wild
And fast to the claw
