I watched you fall Beautiful bird
And I held your bloody carcass
In my palms
I was shirtless, it was Sunday
And the clouds were all congested
And waiting to sneeze
A cold steady rain
Aint nothin’ but Cathy on my mind
Only Cathy on my mind
I’ll turn twenty one soon
Will you take me out to dance?
We can soak our shirts in champagne,
We can smile, and we can laugh
And when the perfect quiet comes
I’ll reach out to touch your hand
And we can watch the sun come up
Through the window by my bed
Aint nothin’ but Cathy on my mind
Only Cathy on my mind
Now the rain is pouring hard
And I’m lying on my bed
And the cranks are turning fast
In this cozy little head
And I’m listening to old records,
Old cowboys sing of lonely hearts
And highways
And I plucked a single feather
From the humming bird
That died upon my driveway
Aint nothin’ but Cathy on my mind
Only Cathy on my mind
