Cats Life Lyrics & Chords By Robert Forster

I could never understand how a woman or a man
Could live their whole lives never travel more than 40 miles
Seemed like a cat's life
Never going far
Seemed like denial
Of everything you are

Could never understand
Struck me as mad
That you could gather it all
In the one place that you had
Seemed like a cat's life
If you're hungry you cry
What's 40 miles
Under one piece of sky

Walk out into the fields
It's all in my hair
I look up
And I see you there
It's just like a cat's life
No crawling down a wall
It's 40 miles
Whether it's big or small

Would never understand
It struck me as mad
Like their whole live
But now I can

It's just like a cat's life
If you're hungry you cry
Only 40 miles
Piece of sky

Just like a cat's life
