Wild Kitty
music traditional, words Marc Gunn 9-25-2003

The first of Mark's Irish Drinking Songs for Cat Lovers. This cat song is based on the Irish folk song "Wild Rover". This song tells of a cat who is out searching for food, but instead just finds himself with a drinking problem. The chorus is incredible fun!

All together now
raise them beer mugs high & M-E-O-W!

Well I've been a wild kitty for many's the year,
And I found a nice pub that serves milk mixed with beer.
This makes me quite happy, so I'll purr with galore.
For I never will be a wild kitty no more.

And it's no nay never, (meow, meow, meow, meow)
No nay never no more, (meow, meow)
Will I be a wild kitty. (meow)
No never no more.

It began at an ale house while hunting for fish.
The back door was left open. Some food they'd not miss.
Well the landlord he caught me and took me out back,
And he said if you're good I'll bring milk for to lap.

And it's no nay never, (meow, meow, meow, meow)
No nay never no more, (meow, meow)
Will I be a wild kitty. (meow)
No never no more.

Well the landlord he bought me some milk from the bar
But he thought it'd be cute to add whiskey from the jar
He layed it before me. I sniffed cautiously.
Then I lapped the milk down & passed out on his knee.

And it's no nay never, (meow, meow, meow, meow)
No nay never no more, (meow, meow)
Will I be a wild kitty. (meow)
No never no more.

Well the landlord he took me inside to take care
When I woke I refused to drink milk without beer.
So now every night I stumble galore.
I don't land on feet, but I'm wild no more.

And it's no nay never, (meow, meow, meow, meow)
No nay never no more, (meow, meow)
Will I be a wild kitty. (meow)
No never no more.
