The Old Gumbie Cat Lyrics - Singles - Cats

I have a Gumbie cat in mind 

Her name is Jennyanydots 

Her coat is of the tabby kind 

With tiger stripes and leopard spots 

All day she sits upon the stair 

Or on the step or on the mat 

She sits and sits and sits and sits 

And that's what makes a Gumbie cat 

That's what makes a Gumbie cat 

But when the day's hustle and bustle is done 

Then the Gumbie cat's work is but hardly begun 

And when all the family's in bed and asleep 

She tucks up her skirts to the basement to creep

She is deeply concerned with the ways of the mice 

Their behavior's not good and their manners not nice 

So when she has got them lined up on the matting 

She teaches them music, crocheting and tatting 

I have a Gumbie cat in mind 

Her name is Jennyanydots 

The curtain cord she likes to wind 

And tie it into sailor knots 

She sits upon the windowsill 

Or anything that's smooth and flat 

She sits and sits and sits and sits 

And that's what makes a Gumbie cat 

That's what makes a Gumbie cat 

But when the day's hustle and bustle is done 

Then the Gumbie cat's work is but hardly begun 

She thinks that the cockroaches need employment 

To prevent them from idle and wanton destroyment

So she's formed from that lot of disorderly louts 

A troop of well disciplined helpful boy scouts 

With a purpose in life and a good deed to do 

And she's even created a beetle's tattoo 

For she's a jolly good fellow 

Thank you my dears
