Lyrics:

Now Old Uncle John Had Troubles Of His Own.
he Had An Ol' Yellow Cat That Wouldn't Leave Home.
he Tried Everything He Knew To Keep The Cat Away -
even Gave It To A Preacher An' He Told It For To Stay, But

the Cat Came Back, The Cat Came Back,
i Thought He Was A Goner But The Cat Came Back -
'cause He Wouldn't Stay Away.

now The Cat Was A Terror And He Thought It Was Best -
to Give It To A Fella Who Was Headin' Out West.
the Train Went Around The Corner An' It Hit A Broken Rail ---
not A Soul Aboard The Train Lived To Tell The Tale, But

he Gave The Ol' Cat To The Man In A Balloon.
he Told Him To Leave It With The Man In The Moon.
the Balloon It Bursted And Everybody Said ---
ten Miles Away, They Picked The Man Up Dead, But

now The Farmer On The Corner's Gonna Kill The Cat On Site -
he's Loaded Up His Gun Full Of Nails An' Dynamite ---
he Waited In The Garden Till The Cat Came 'round ---
seven Little Pieces Of The Man Was All They Found, But
