Oil on the asphalt black
Cold wind hits a rusted track
Blinking yellow eyes so bright
Cutting through the heavy night
Calico glow in the parking lot
Waiting for a kind of luck I got
Painting all the pavement gold and blue
Searching for a love that feels brand new
Sipping on a bitter brew
Watching every car pass through
Grease upon my apron white
Keeping watch until the light
Calico glow in the parking lot
Waiting for a kind of luck I got
Painting all the pavement gold and blue
Searching for a love that feels brand new
Patchwork coat of orange red
Sleeping where the tires tread
Stretching out a velvet paw
Coldest wind he ever saw
Calico glow in the parking lot
Waiting for a kind of luck I got
Painting all the pavement gold and blue
Searching for a love that feels brand new
Coffee in a plastic cup
Waiting for the sun to wake up
He don't need a fancy home
Just a little space to roam
Hard luck city, hard luck street
Walking on some weary feet
Just a scrap of fur and bone
Better off just being lone
Flip the sign to closed and dark
Hearing one lone distant bark
He is still there by the door
I can't ask for any more
Calico glow in the parking lot
Waiting for a kind of luck I got
Painting all the pavement gold and blue
Searching for a love that feels brand new
Calico glow.
Yeah, just keep glowing.
Stay gold, little cat.
