Fat Cat

Words and music by Gino Matteo

Arranged by Gino Matteo and Chris Desmond

 

Sits on the front porch all day long

Watching the sidewalk and the front lawn

Lends a hand to any body she meets

Don’t walk on the grass with your bare feet

Fat cat

Talkin’ ‘bout that fat cat

Shake it like this

Sho’ ‘nuf shake it like that

 

She’s forty six pounds, grey and white

When she starts shakin’, Lord what a sight

All that fur goes 2 feet wide

She’s got Goodyear written on her side

Fat cat

Talkin’ ‘bout that fat cat

Shake it like this

Sho’ ‘nuf shake it like that

  

Walkin’ down the street you can hear the sound

Of her big floppy butt just flopping around

Breathes pretty heavy every now and again

She’s my favorite furry friend

Fat cat

Talkin’ ‘bout that fat cat

Shake it like this

Sho’ ‘nuf shake it like that

Shake it like this

Sho’ ‘nuf shake it like that

Shake it like this

Sho’ ‘nuf shake it like that

People are always asking me what my lyrics mean. Well I say what any decent poet would say if you dared ask him to analyse his work: if you see it, darling, then it's there.
