Stray dogs and Alley cats
By:Harley Allen

Intro:C run down Am G F G



C                   Am
Every sunday in my momma's church
F                            G
I'd sneak some money out of momma's purse
C                              Am
While she was praying I would slip away
F                          G
Down at the pool hall I'd play all day
C                            Am
I'd meet her home and she'd just shake her head 
F                             G
Your fluffing pillows on the devil's bed
C                   Am
I'd say mom I know just how you feel
F                           G
But I made enough to cover all our bills 


Chorus:

F                      G
To bad for heaven and to good for hell
C                        Am 
Little wings are better than big tails
F                         G
I don't expect to sit at god's right hand 
C                       Am            F
I could empty heavens garbage cans whoa ohh
F              G                      C
Hope their is room on those golden streets
F                    G             C
For stray dogs and alley cats like me

Intro:


C                           Am
If they won't let me in the big front gate
F              G
Maybe I can go in the backway
C                         Am
I know my halo wouldn't shine real bright
F                                 G
But it would get me through the clouds at night
C                            Am
And I don't care if I'm the last to sing 
F                          G
Ref I've got the smallest set of wings
C                               Am
I'd watch those little devil's down on earth
F                             G
And follow them when they'd sneak out of church
