Lyrics The Cat Came Back - Rolf Harris

Old Uncle Judd had troubles of his own.
He had a scruffy yellow tom that wouldn't leave home.
He went to church one Sunday, one Sunday for advice.
The preacher said, "Leave him here, 't'would be so very nice."

CHORUS:
But the cat came back, the cat came back.
Thought he was a goner, but the cat came back.
He just couldn't stay away.

He gave him to a man going up in a balloon'
And asked the chap to leave him with the Man in the Moon.
Well, the balloon it must have busted; well, that's what everybody said.
'Cause ten miles away they picked the man up dead.

CHORUS:

Old Uncle Judd swore he'd kill the cat on sight.
He loaded up his blunderbuss with nails & dynamite.
He aimed it at the spot where the tomcat would appear.
All they ever found was Uncle Judd's left ear...
[SPOPKEN:]
"Uh, where did they find it?"
"Well, it was just left 'ere."

CHORUS:

He broke into the house, ate everything in sight;
While outside this Irish fella was looking for a fight.
The cat all smiles sat fat & fully fed.
The fella sang "Rule, Brittania" and the cat dropped dead.

CHORUS: [replace "the cat" with "his ghost"]
