- Songwriters: Rory Gallagher
Well there's a hell cat, loose cat, hear it wail
It can stop you down the street, you cannot get away
Well it's gonna get to you, got the demon power
You got to run, run, brother you know your soul's on fire
You got to run, run, brother you know your soul's on fire
Well there's a strange, strange feeling chilling your hands
A shadow in your doorway, freeze you where you stand
You play your dice with the devil, now it's much too late
Well don't you know you got a hell cat on your trail
Well don't you know you got a hell cat on your trail
The sound that haunts you from the dark will dawn
Don't go away no more when the morning comes
There's a step on the stairs, a storm in your sails
That you know you got a hell cat by the tail
Yeah, you've done and got a hell cat on your trail
Oh yeah
Well, there's a hell cat, loose cat, hear it moan
Stalking your shadow all night long
It's the darkest feeling this side of hell
Well don't you know you got a hell cat by the tail
You know you've got a hell cat by the tail
Well hell cat, well hell cat
Well hell cat, well hell cat
