《The Cat Came Back》歌词

[00:00:08] Old Mister Johnson had troubles of his own

[00:00:11] He had a yellow cat who wouldn't leave its home

[00:00:14] He tried and he tried to give the cat away

[00:00:17] He gave it to a man goin' far, far away.

[00:00:22] But the cat came back the very next day

[00:00:26] The cat came back, they thought he was a goner

[00:00:29] But the cat came back;he just couldn't stay away.

[00:00:34] (Give me a miao. Miaoooo!)

[00:00:38] Now the man around the corner swore he'd kill the cat on sight

[00:00:42] He loaded up his shotgun with nails and dynamite

[00:00:45] He waited and he waited for the cat to come around

[00:00:49] Ninety seven pieces of the man is all they found.

[00:00:58] But the cat came back the very next day

[00:01:02] The cat came back, they thought he was a goner

[00:01:05] But the cat came back;he just couldn't stay away.

[00:01:10] (Give me a miao. Miaoooo!)

[00:01:14] He gave it to a man going up in a balloon

[00:01:17] He told him for to take it to the man in the moon

[00:01:20] The balloon came down about ninety miles away

[00:01:23] Where he is now, well I dare not say.

[00:01:28] But the cat came back the very next day

[00:01:32] The cat came back, they thought he was a goner

[00:01:35] But the cat came back;he just couldn't stay away.

[00:01:40] (Give me a miao. Miaoooo!)

[00:01:44] So he gave it to a man going way out West

[00:01:47] Told him for to take it to the one he loved the best

[00:01:50] First the train hit the curve, then it jumped the rail

[00:01:53] Not a soul was left behind to tell the gruesome tale.

[00:02:02] But you now what?

[00:02:03] But the cat came back the very next day

[00:02:07] The cat came back, they thought he was a goner

[00:02:10] But the cat came back;he just couldn't stay away.

[00:02:15] (Give me a miao. Miaoooo!)

[00:02:19] Now the cat was a possessor of a family of its own

[00:02:22] With seven little kittens till there came a cyclone

[00:02:26] Blew the houses all apart and tossed the cat around

[00:02:29] The air was full of kittens, and not a one was ever found.

[00:02:41] But the cat came back the very next day

[00:02:44] The cat came back, they thought he was a goner

[00:02:47] But the cat came back;he just couldn't stay away.

[00:02:52] (Give me a miao. Miaoooo!)

[00:02:55] Sing it all again!

[00:02:56] But the cat came back the very next day

[00:02:59] The cat came back, they thought he was a goner

[00:03:02] But the cat came back;he just couldn't stay away.

[00:03:08] (Give me a miao. Miaoooo!)

[00:03:10] Louder Miao (Miaoooo!)

[00:03:12] Louder (Miaoooo!)

[00:03:16] Little quiter

[00:03:19] Quiter miao (Miaoooo!)

[00:03:25] quiter (Miaoooo!)
