Unknown – Don Gato lyrics

El senior Don Gato was a cat
On a high, red roof, Don Gato sat
He was there to read a letter
Meow, meow, meow
Where the reading light was better
Meow, meow, meow
T'was a love note for Don Gato
"I adore you," wrote the lady cat
She was fluffy, white and nice and fat
There was not a sweeter kitty
Meow, meow, meow
In the country or the city
Meow, meow, meow
And she said she'd wed Don Gato
Well, Don Gato jumped so happily,
He fell off the roof and broke his knee
Broke his ribs and all his whiskers
Meow, meow, meow
And his little solar plexus
Meow, meow, meow
"Ay caramba!", cried Don Gato

All the doctors came upon the run
Just to see if something could be done
And they held a consultation
Meow, meow, meow
About how to save their patient
Meow, meow, meow
How to save Senor Don Gato

But in spite of ev'rything they tried.
Poor Senor Don Gato up and died.
Oh, it wasn't very merry,
Meow, meow, meow
Going to the cemetery
Meow, meow, meow.
For the ending of Don Gato

When the funeral passed the market square,
Such a smell of fish was in the air,
Though his burial was slated,
Meow meow meow
He became reanimated,
Meow, meow, meow
He came back to life, Don Gato.
Olay!
