lyrics

Pussy Cat.
Music and Lyrics by Thom Carter, Copyright Self Released Records 2012.

Pussy cat climbs in the old Mulberry tree,
And pussy cat sits right here upon my knee,
Pussy cat bring me a dead mouse as a gift,
Pussy cat bring me a purr when I need a lift,

Pussy cat, let me pick you right off of the floor,
And dance with you baby, like they just don’t dance no more,
Pussy cat, I know you’re sharpening up your claws,
Be kind to me baby, I don’t wanna get hurt no more.

Pussy cat lies on a coat upon the floor,
And she plays with a ribbon just like a tomboy should,
Pussy cat eyes, why do they follow me,
Then turn on a sixpence and ignore me for the rest of the week?

Pussy cat, lets take the train from here and go,
To a place that I have never been before,
Pussy cat, ride with me, any old town you know,
You don’t need to pack luggage, you got yourself a real fur coat.

Pussy cat, you are making me feel old,
You can keep up with the fashions and opinions if you want,
All the young boys are looking for a kitty like you,
They’ll be tripping up all over themselves when you come through,
They’ll be tripping up all over themselves when you come through,

Oh, pussy cat, there ain’t no others like me and you,
We’re outlaws being hounded by the rules of an ignorant fool,
Oh pussy cat please, wherever you may go,
Don’t ever stop dancing, you’re the Queen of the goddamn show,
Don’t ever stop dancing, you’re the Queen of the goddamn show.
