Shoo, Scat You Darn Cat,

As I walked a ' black cat crossed my path I said shoo, I said scat He stared, looking me in the eye As if to ask me why. It was as if to say "did the cat get your tongue' I think he did, for his stare was quite long I said shoo, I said scat Get away from here you darn cat. The more persistent his meowing became Look cat I am not to blame You live in the alley out back I will say shoo, I will say scat. I said shoo, I said scat Go and find a rat Quit meowing it's time for bed Go and find your supper instead.
