Here kitty, kitty, kitty 
Here kitty, here kitty [x4] 
Hark I hear them calling for me fireman, oh fireman 
Hark I hear them calling for me hurry, hurry fireman 
I climb the 
Eucalyptus, bring her kitty back 
I climb the 
Douglas fir and bring her kitty back 
I climb the 
Juniper and bring her kitty back "How can I thank you for your bringing kitty back?" 
Here kitty, here kitty [x4] 
Climbing, climbing they exhort me 
Hurry, hurry fireman 
Crying, crying loud and softly 
Every cat's a crazy man 
I'm at your service, ma'am, and here's your kitty back 
I'm at your service ma'am, and here's your kitty back "How can I thank you for your bringing kitty back?" "How can I ever thank you, ever pay you back?" 
Here kitty, kitty, kitty 
Here kitty, here kitty [x4] 
A four-alarmer and the circus is ablaze 
Panicky people run out madly through the haze 
I fight my way into the 
Big Top, wipe my eyes 
There stands a tiger trainer, lovely, hear her cry 
She points up to the high-wire, there a tiger stands "Oh help me, help me, bring my tiger down, dear man" "If you will save him, I will be yours every night" 
I climb the pole and look the tiger in the eye 
I climb the pole and look the tiger in the eye 
Here kitty, kitty, kitty 
Here kitty, here kitty [x4] 
Cats have struck a silent bargain with young women with no man 
Treat us, feed us royally, and tonight you'll have that man 
Though a lowly fireman, for tonight 
I am that man 
Virtue is its own reward, but tonight 
I am that man 
Virtue is its own reward, but tonight 
I am that man
