C               G  
Everybody wants to be a cat  
Am                   F  
Because a cat's the only cat  
C                G  
Who knows where it's at.  
Am                F  
Tell me, everybody's pickin' up on that feline beat  
C              G  
'Cause everything else is obsolete.  

C               G  
A square with a horn makes you wish you weren't born  
Am                  F  
Every time he plays;  
C                   G  
But with a cat and a fiddle,  
Am                   F  
And a swingin' kitty diddle,  
C                G  
You can set music back to the caveman days.  

C               G  
I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing  
Am                  F  
But a cat's the only cat  
C                G  
Who knows how to swing.  
Am                F  
Who's the king of the jungle?  
C                G  
Who is he?  
Am                 F  
It's the cat with a bass and a saxophone, you see.
