Cat's In The Well   





The cat's in the well the wolf is looking down 

The cat's in the well the wolf is looking down 

He got a big bushy tail dragging all over the ground. 

 

The cat's in the well the gentle lady is asleep 

Cat's in the well gentle lady is asleep 

She ain't hearing things silence is-a-stickin' her deep. 

 

Cat's in the well and grief is showing it's face 

The world's been slaughtered it's such a bloody disgrace. 

 

The cat's in the well horses going bumpety bump 

The cat's in the well horses going bumpety bump 

But God is silent doing the American jump. 

 

Cat's in the well and papa is reading the news 

His hair's falling out and all of his daughters need shoes. 

 

The cat's in the well and the barn is full of bull 

The cat's in the well and the barn is full of bull 

Tonight is so long and the table is oh so full. 

 

The cat's in the well and the servant's at the door 

The drinks are ready and the dogs are going to war. 

 

The cat's in the well and leaves are starting to fall 

The cat's in the well and leaves are starting to fall 

Goodnight my love may lord have mercy on us all.
