Now, old Uncle John had troubles of his own
                          B              E
Had a old yellow cat that wouldn't leave home
         A
He tried everything he knew to keep the cat away
     N.C.
Even gave it to a preacher and he told it for to stay

        A
But the cat came back
    A
The cat came back
  A
I thought he was a goner
        D                       E             A
But the cat came back 'cause he wouldn't stay away

 A       D      E
(Bum bum bum ba-dum)
 A       D      E
(Bum bum bum ba-dum)

       A
Now he gave the old cat to the man in a balloon
   A                              B          E
He told him to leave him with the man in the moon
    A
The balloon it busted and everybody said
N.C.
Ten miles away they picked the man up dead

        A
But the cat came back
    A
The cat came back
  A
I thought he was a goner
        D                       E             A
But the cat came back 'cause he wouldn't stay away

 A       D      E
(Bum bum bum ba-dum)
 A       D      E
(Bum bum bum ba-dum)

        A
Now the cat was a terror and he thought it was best
                               B           E
To give it to a feller who was headin' out west
          A
The train went around a corner and it hit a broken rail
N.C.
Not a soul aboard the train lived to tell the tale

        A
But the cat came back
    A
The cat came back
  A
I thought he was a goner
        D                       E             A
But the cat came back 'cause he wouldn't stay away

 A       D      E
(Bum bum bum ba-dum)
 A       D      E
(Bum bum bum ba-dum)

Now the farmer on the corner's gonna kill the cat on sight
                          B             E
He loaded up his gun with nails and dynamite
         A
Well, he waited in the garden till the cat came around
N.C.
Seven little pieces of the man is all they found...

        A
But the cat came back
    A
The cat came back
  A
I thought he was a goner
        D                       E             A
But the cat came back 'cause he wouldn't stay away

 A       D      E
