alley in Tennessee

Where will you be living? Asked his cousin Callie
Easy, said country mouse, I will be residing in an alley
Do you think that’s a good idea? Is it where you should be?
He could think of no reason not, so moved to Tennessee.

The alley was gorgeous in the evening, lots of tasty stuff to eat.
This is amazing said the country mouse who loved the summer heat.
In morning, he wandered out with his coffee to get a bite of this and that.
He was chased by not only sixteen alley cats, but a determined angry rat.
