The Little Drummer Cat

(Based on the traditional song "The Little Drummer Boy")

Purr-um-pum-pum-pum

Purr-um-pum-pum-pum

Purr-um-pum-pum-pum

Come they told me, purr-um-pum-pum,

A new [kitten] king to see, purr-um-pum-pum,

Our finest gifts we bring, purr-um-pum-pum,

To lay before the king, purr-um-pum-pum,

So to honor him, purr-um-pum-pum,

When we come.

Little [cat] too, purr-um-pum-pum,

Meow, I have no gift to bring, purr-um-pum-pum,

That's fit to give a king, purr-um-pum-pum,

Shall I play for you, [on my claws] purr-um-pum-pum,

On my little [toy mouse], purr-um-pum-pum,

For you to hear?

[Mary] nodded, purr-um-pum-pum,

The ox and [lambchop] kept time, purr-um-pum-pum,

I played my [best bongo tapping] for him, purr-um-pum-pum,

[Then he smiled at me], purr-um-pum-pum,

Me and my [paws].

Thank you Medieval Cat peeps for the wonderful and weird cats you bring us. Thank you

Purr rum pumpum pum !
