If a man has one cat

And another one comes to stay

How many cats are there in his house today



Two pussy cats, two pussy cats

Two pussy cats, two pussy cats



Another cat scratches on the door

The man lets him in

The cat says 'awfully good of you old chap'

And licks him on the chin [slurp]



Three pussy cats, three pussy cats

Three pussy cats, three pussy cats



A little bit later on, two more cats appear

A tabby one and a stray

The man gives them an ice cold beer

And that makes -



Five pussy cats, five pussy cats

Five pussy cats, five pussy cats

Lyin' on the kitchen floor

Meiow, meiow, meiow, meiow, meiow, meiow, meiow, meiow



Four cats jump up

And run away chasin' a mouse

So how many cats

Are there still left in this house



One pussy cat, one pussy cat

A one little pussy cat

A little bitty pussy cat

Lyin' on the kitchen floor



Meiow, meiow, meiow
