歌词

[00:05.670] Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat
[00:10.410] The Cat of the Railway Train
[00:15.800] There's a whisper down the line at eleven thirty-nine
[00:19.090] When the Night Mail's ready to depart
[00:22.410] Saying, "Skimble, where is Skimble?
[00:23.980] Has he gone to hunt the thimble?
[00:25.570] We must find him or the train can't start"
[00:28.970] All the guards and all the porters
[00:30.590] And the station master's daughters
[00:32.310] Would be searching high and low
[00:35.530] Saying "Skimble where is Skimble
[00:37.170] For unless he's very nimble
[00:39.040] Then the night mail just can't go."
[00:42.180] At eleven forty-two with the signal overdue
[00:45.640] And the passengers all frantic to a man
[00:48.840] That's when I would appear and I'd saunter to the rear
[00:52.410] I'd been busy in the luggage van!
[00:57.110] Then he gave one flash of his glass-green eyes
[01:00.580] And the signal went "All Clear!"
[01:03.800] They'd be off at last to the northern part of the Northern Hemisphere!
[01:09.450] Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat
[01:14.100] The Cat of the Railway Train
[01:19.090] You might say that by and large
[01:20.970] It was me who was in charge of the Sleeping Car Express
[01:25.690] From the driver and the guards to the bagmen playing cards
[01:29.040] I would supervise them all more or less
[01:32.550] Down the corridor he paces and examines all the faces
[01:35.500] Of the travellers in the first and the third
[01:38.860] He establishes control by a regular patrol
[01:42.020] And he'd know at once if anything occurred
[01:45.480] He would watch you without winking
[01:47.110] And he saw what you were thinking
[01:48.830] And it's certain that he didn't approve
[01:51.920] Of hilarity and riot
[01:53.760] So that folk were very quiet
[01:55.680] When Skimble was about and on the move
[02:00.360] You could play no pranks with Skimbleshanks!
[02:03.610] He's a cat that cannot be ignored
[02:06.960] So nothing went wrong on the Northern Mail
[02:10.290] When Skimbleshanks was aboard
[02:15.740] It was very pleasant when they'd found their little den
[02:18.700] With their name written up on the door
[02:21.850] And the berth was very neat with a newly folded sheet
[02:25.240] And not a speck of dust upon the floor
[02:28.560] There was every sort of light
[02:30.210] You could make it dark or bright
[02:32.080] And a button you could turn to make a breeze
[02:35.120] And a funny little basin you're supposed to wash your face in
[02:38.640] And a crank to shut the window should you sneeze
[02:41.790] Then the guard looked in politely and would ask you very brightly,
[02:45.440] "Do you like your morning tea weak or strong?"
[02:48.730] But I was just behind him and was ready to remind him
[02:52.500] For Skimble won't let anything go wrong
[02:56.770] When they crept into their cosy berth
[03:00.500] And pulled up the counterpane
[03:03.690] They all could reflect that it was very nice
[03:06.940] To know that they wouldn't be bothered by mice
[03:10.270] They can leave all that to the Railway Cat
[03:13.560] The Cat of the Railway Train
[03:16.230] Skimbleshanks the Railway Cat
[03:20.980] The Cat of the Railway Train
[03:26.180] In the watches of the night I was always fresh and bright
[03:29.580] Every now and then I'd have a cup of tea
[03:32.670] With perhaps a drop of Scotch while I was keeping on the watch
[03:36.040] Only stopping here and there to catch a flea
[03:39.260] They were fast asleep at Crewe and so they never knew
[03:42.470] That I was walking up and down the station
[03:45.640] They were sleeping all the while I was busy at Carlisle
[03:48.860] Where I met the station master with elation
[03:52.280] They might see me at Dumfries if I summoned the police
[03:55.460] If there was anything they ought to know about
[03:58.780] When they got to Gallowgate there they did not have to wait
[04:02.360] For Skimbleshanks would help them to get out!
[04:11.830] And he gives a wave of his long brown tail
[04:16.240] Which says "I'll see you again!
[04:19.420] You'll meet without fail on the Midnight Mail
[04:22.710] The Cat of the Railway Train!"
[04:26.460]
