From the Walt Disney Motion Picture
THAT DARN CAT
Richard M. Sherman & Robert B. Sherman
A Mickey McBride Arrangement
WHILE THE CITY SLEEPS, EV’RY NIGHT HE CREEPS,
JUST SURVEYING HIS DOMAIN,
HE ROAMS AROUND LIKE HE OWNS THE TOWN,
HE’S THE KING, HE MAKES THAT PLAIN,
HE KNOWS EV’RY TRICK, DOESN’T MISS A LICK,
WHEN IT COMES TO KEEPIN’ FAT,
SOME CITY SLICKER! NO ONE IS QUICKER THAN...
THAT DARN CAT!
EV’RY NOOK AND CRANNY AND GARBAGE CAN
HE INSPECTS SO THOROUGHLY!
WHEN HE’S ON HIS ROUNDS, NOTHIN’S OUT OF BOUNDS
TO HIS CURIOSITY,
HE CAN SMILE AND PURR AT A PRETTY HER
TILL SHE DON’T KNOW WHERE SHE’S AT,
NOSE LIKE A GEIGER! OH, WHAT A TIGER IS...
THAT DARN CAT!
(Musical Transition)
HE’S A SLY OLD CODGER, AN ARTFUL DODGER,
A SCROUNGER UNSURPASSED,
A BALL OF FIRE, A NINE-LIVE WIRE,
WHO JUST CAN’T BE OUT-CLASSED,
YEAH, THIS MIDNIGHT ROVER, HE LIVES IN CLOVER,
IT’S AN ART HE’S GOT DOWN-PAT,
NEVER WAS A GREATER SMOOTH OPERATOR THAN...
THAT DARN CAT!
