cat's in the well

the cat's in the well
the wolf is looking down
the cat's in the well
the wolf is looking down
he got his big bushy tail
dragging all over the ground

the cat's in the well
the gentle lady is asleep
cat's in the well
the gentle lady is asleep
she ain't hearing a thing
the silence is sticking her deep

the cat's in the well
and grief is showing its face
the world's being slaughtered and it's
such a bloody disgrace

the cat's in the well
the horse is going bumpety bump
the cat's in the well
and the horse is going bumpety bump
back alley sally is doing the american jump

the cat's in the well
and pappa is reading the news
his hair is falling out
and all of his daughters need shoes

the cat's in the well
and the barn is full of bull
the cat's in the well
and the barn is full of bull
the night is so long and the table is
oh so full

the cat's in the well
and the servant is at the door
the drinks are ready
and the dogs are going to war

the cat's in the well
the leaves are starting to fall
the cat's in the well
leaves are starting to fall
goodnight my love
may the lord have mercy on us all
