Look At The Little Kitty Kat

(album: Capt. Burl Ives' Ark - 1958)

Here kitty, here kitty
Here little kitty, here little kitty
Here kitty, here kitty, here little kitty cat

Look at the little kitty cat a-walking down the street
I bet he's got no place to go or nothing good to eat
Look at the little kitty cat with tiny tired feet
He ought to have a place to go 'cause he's so very sweet

Here kitty, here kitty
Here little kitty, here little kitty
Here kitty, here kitty, here little kitty cat

I'm going to ask my mama if she'll let me take him home
Where I can hold him close to me so he won't have to roam
He ought to have a lot of milk and lots of fish and meat
Instead of finding what he can in the alley or the street

Now look at the little kitty cat a-sleeping in his bed
He's got a place to rest his feet and lay his weary head
I'm going to see that he will stay as happy as can be
And now when he goes walking he'll go walking next to me

Oh kitty, oh kitty
Oh how I love my sweet little kitty
Oh kitty, oh kitty
Sweet little kitty cat
