Old Black Cat |
| My old black cat passed away this morning |
| He never knew what a hard day was |
| Woke up late and danced on tin roofs |
| If questioned «Why?» |
| — answered, «Just because.» |
| He never spoke much, preferring silence: |
| Eight lost lives was all he had |
| Occasionally sneaked some Sunday dinner |
| He wasn’t good and he wasn’t bad |
| My old black cat wasn’t much of a looker |
| You could pass him by — just a quiet shadow |
| Got pushed around by all the other little guys |
| Didn’t seem to mind much — just the way life goes |
| Padded about in furry slippers |
| Didn’t make any special friends |
| He played it cool with wide-eyed innocence |
| Receiving gladly what the good Lord sends |
| Forgot to give his Christmas present |
| Black cat collar, nice and new |
| Thought he’d make it through to New Year |
| I guess this song will have to do |
| My old black cat… |
| Old black cat… |
