歌词

[00:00.00] I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
[00:05.23] Her name is Jennyanydots
[00:09.29] Her coat is of the tabby kind
[00:13.76] with tiger stripes and leopard spots
[00:17.97] All day she sits upon the stair
[00:21.82] or on the step or on the mat
[00:25.94] She sits and sits and sits and sits
[00:30.56] And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[00:34.21] That's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[00:40.24] But when the day's hustle and bustle is done
[00:44.48] Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun
[00:47.89] And when all the family's in bed and asleep
[00:50.94] She tucks up her skirts to the basement to creep
[00:54.15] She is deeply concerned with the ways of the mice
[00:57.11] Their behaviour's not good and their manners not nice
[01:00.26] So when she has got them lined up on the matting
[01:03.46] She teaches them music crocheting and tatting
[01:07.21] I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
[01:11.37] Her name is Jennyanydots
[01:15.52] Her equal would be hard to find
[01:19.68] She likes the warm and sunny spots
[01:23.74] All day she sits beside the hearth
[01:28.11] or on the bed or on my hat
[01:32.12] She sits and sits and sits and sits
[01:36.84] And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[01:40.59] That's what makes a Gumbie Cat!
[01:46.24] But when the day's hustle and bustle is done
[01:50.67] Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun
[01:54.03] As she finds that the mice will not ever keep quiet
[01:56.94] She is sure it is due to irregular diet
[02:00.35] And believing that nothing is done without trying
[02:03.15] She sets right to work with her baking and frying
[02:06.17] She makes them a mouse-cake of bread and dried peas
[02:09.13] And a beautiful fry of lean bacon and cheese
[02:12.23]
[02:41.35] I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
[02:45.80] Her name is Jennyanydots
[02:50.32] The curtain cord she likes to wind
[02:54.63] and tie it into sailor knots
[02:58.59] She sits upon the windowsill
[03:02.70] or anything that's smooth and flat
[03:07.00] She sits and sits and sits and sits
[03:11.20] And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[03:15.36] That's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[03:21.45] But when the day's hustle and bustle is done
[03:25.20] Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun
[03:28.40] She thinks that the cockroaches just need employment
[03:31.71] To prevent them from idle and wanton destroyment
[03:34.60] So she's formed from that lot of disorderly louts
[03:37.37] A troop of well disciplined helpful boy scouts
[03:40.23] With a purpose in life and a good deed to do
[03:43.29] And she's even created a Beetles Tattoo!
[03:46.25]
[04:54.37] So for old Gumbie Cats let us give three cheers
[04:57.28] On whom well ordered households depend, it appears
[05:01.79] Three cheers, three cheers, three cheers!
[05:04.65] For she's a jolly good fellow!
[05:07.01] Thank you my dears!
