(Hey!)
(Hey!)
I'm gonna be a wheel some day
I'm gonna be somebody
I'm gonna be a real gone cat
Then I won't want you
Ev'rything's gonna go my way
And I won't need nobody
I'm gonna be a real gone cat
Then I won't want you
You can cry-i-i-i-i
You gon' cry-ha-ha-hard
You be wonderin' why
I don't look at you
When I go strollin' by
I'm gonna be a wheel some day
I'm gonna be somebody
I'm gonna be a real gone cat
Then I won't want you
(instrumental & sax)

Then l won't want you
