Pride

A dog and a cat were talking one day that dog called the cat a useless stray Well that dog had the run of the house and that cat hunted down every mouse I was given their love when I was born right here in their house where I belong But you little cat are just a stray left outside your mom walked away That cat ignored him answered instead at night the small child takes me to bed But the man of the house puts you outside so tell me where you get such pride Every night that cat laid nice and warm in the little girls bed until the dawn Every night her dad put the dog in the yard sometimes the price of pride can be hard
