Old Mr. Johnson had troubles of his own
He had a yellow cat which just wouldn't leave his home
He tried and he tried to give the cat away
Gave it to a man going far away But the cat came back, the very next day
The cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, she just wouldn't stay away
Now, the man around the corner swore he'd shoot the cat on sight.
He loaded up his shotgun full with nails and dynamite.
He waited... and he waited... for the cat to come around
And ninety-seven pieces of the man was all they found...
But the cat came back the very next day.
The cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, just wouldn't stay away.
He gave it to a little boy with a dollar note
Told him for to take it up the river in a boat
They tied a rope around its neck it must have weighed a pound
Now they drag the river for the little boy that's drowned But the cat came back the very next day.
The cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, just wouldn't stay away.
He gave it to a man going up in a balloon
Told him for to take it to the man on the moon
The balloon came down 'bout 90 miles away
And where he is now, well, I dare not say
But the cat came back the very next day.
The the cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, just wouldn't stay away.
He gave it to a man going way out west
Told him for to take it to the one he loved the best
First the train hit the curve and then it jumped the rail
Not a soul was left behind to the tell the gruesome tale
But the cat came back the very next day.
The the cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, just wouldn't stay away
Away across the ocean he did send the cat at last
Vessel only out a day and taking water fast
People all began to pray the boat began to toss
A great big gust of wind came by and every soul was lost
But the cat came back the very next day.
Yes, the cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, just wouldn't stay away
On a telegraph wire sparrows sitting in a bunch
The cat was feeling hungry thought she'd take them for a lunch
Climbed softly up the pole, when she reached the toptouched unfriendly electric wire which tied her in a knot.
But the cat came back the very next day.
The the cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, just wouldn't stay away
Now the cat was the possessor of a family of her own
Seven little kittens till there came a cyclone
Blew the houses all apart, tossed the cats around
The air was full of kittens and not a one was found But the cat came back the very next day.
Yes, the cat came back, they thought she was a goner,
But the cat came back, just wouldn't stay away-way-way-way...... just wouldn't stay away
