I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
Her name is Jennyanydots
Her Coat is of the tabby kind with tiger
Stripes and leopard spots
All day she sits upon the stair or on the
Steps or on the mat
She Sits and sits and and sits and sits
And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
But
When the day's hustle and bustle is done
Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly
Begun
And when all the family's in bed and asleep
She tucks up her skirts to the basement to
Creep
She is deeply concerned with the ways of
The mince
Their behaviour's not good and their
Manners not nice
So when she has got them lined up on the
Matting
She teaches them music crocheting and
Tatting
I have a Gumbie Cat in mind
Her name is Jennyanydots
The curtain cord she likes to wind and tie it
Into sailor knots
She sits upon the windosaill or anything
That's smooth and flat
She sits and sits and sits and sits
And that's what makes a Gumbie Cat
But
When the day's hustle and bustle is done
Then the Gumbie Cat's work is but hardly
Begun
She thinks that the cocroaches need
Employment
To prevent them from idle and wanton
Destroyment
So she's formed from that lot of disorderly
Louts
A troop of well disciplined helpful boy
Scouts
With a purpose in life and a good deed to
Do
And she's even created a beetles tap too
For she"s jolly good fellow
Thank you my dears
