[00:18.085]I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
[00:23.390]Her name is Jennyanydots
[00:27.439]Her coat is of the tabby kind
[00:32.042]With tiger stripes and leopard spots
[00:37.070]All day she sits upon the stairs
[00:41.453]Or on the step or on the mat
[00:46.866]She sits and sits and sits and sits
[00:54.114]And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[00:59.102]That's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[01:05.906]But...
[01:09.665]When the day's hustle and bustle is done
[01:12.796]Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun
[01:16.269]And when all the family's in bed and asleep
[01:19.513]I tuck up my skirts to the basement to creep
[01:22.508]I am deeply concerned with the ways of the mice
[01:28.597]Their behavior's not good and their manners not nice
[01:34.377]So when I have got them lined up on the matting
[01:38.134]I teach them music, crocheting, and tatting
[02:11.534]I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
[02:16.206]Her name is Jennyanydots
[02:20.372]The curtain cord she likes to wind
[02:24.663]And tie it into sailor knots
[02:29.142]She sits upon the windowsill
[02:33.260]Or anything that's smooth and flat
[02:37.919]She sits and sits and sits and sits
[02:46.011]And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[02:50.532]That's what makes a Gumbie Cat
[02:56.490]Bu-and...
[02:59.609]When the day's hustle and bustle is done
[03:02.284]Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly begun
[03:05.572]I think that the cockroaches need employment
[03:08.840]To prevent them from idle and wanton destroyment
[03:11.940]So I formed from that lot of disorderly louts
[03:14.908]A troop of well-disciplined helpful Boy Scouts
[03:18.470]With a purpose in life and a good deed to do
[03:21.570]And I've even created a Beetles' tattoo
[04:17.624]So, for Old Gumbie Cats, let us now give three cheers
[04:21.017]On whom well-ordered households depend, it appears
[04:25.321]Three cheers, three cheers, three cheers
[04:28.836]Thank you, my dears
