PUSSYCAT SONG  
(Manning)
Gordon MacRae & Jo Stafford and The Starlighters - 1948


This is the story ‘bout a guy who came home late one night
Must have been two or three a.m.
Something like that

Got to get some sleep, he yawned, as he turned out the light
Must have been just too tired to do any reading
Whether he dreamed what happened
Or if he really heard it, he wouldn’t bet
But he swears it sounded like two cats
Singing a cat duet

Come nyout, come nyout, you pretty kitten
We will serenade the moon
Nyot nyow
Come nyout, come nyout, come nyout, my pretty kitten
We will sing a little tune
Nyot nyow
Oh, come on

When the folks got home tonight, at twelve or therebouts 
They locked the door and they forgot to put me out
Come yout, come yout, come yout, my pretty kitten
Mnow?  
Nyot nyow

Later on when several hours had passed
And the little cat had wriggled through screen door at last
She hurried over to the tomcat’s place
And there she found him sleeping with a smile on his face

Come yout, come yout, come yout, you lazy tomcat
You wanna sleep your nine lives through?
Nyot now
Come yout, come yout, come yout, you handsome tomcat
We will catch ‘em out of tune
Ooh, not nyow

You been pussyfooting around
You think you’re pretty hot
Yep
Say, what da those other tabbies have that I ain’t got?
Well, er

Cum yout, cum yout
Not tonight, my Josephina
Psss, psss
Hey
Say, ok, ok, I’ll be right with ya
Meouw
