Me and my buddies, walking along, saw a

funny old cat.

Well, lo and behold, if the tale can be told,

he started chat!

He said, “Scat, cat! And jazz like that.

What a purrfect day today.”

Then he started to wink and started to blink

and this is what he had to say:

Vop voo dwee yop.Moo lee yoo lee

Oh bonee oh bo.Bee yoo bee yoo

Bubba loo bubba zoo bubba bub bub boo

Oh vo dee yo do.

Me and my buddies, sang right along with the

funny old cat.

Well, lo and behold, since a tale can be told,

we started to scat!

We said, “Scat, cat! Imagine that. What a purrfect thing to do!”

You can come on along and join in our song, and you can be a scat

cat, too!
