Songdrops – Striper The Kitty lyrics

[Chorus]
Striper the kitty.
I found him all alone.
It would have been a pity,
Not to bring him home.
There's no other kitty,
Like my new best friend,
With a big striped tail,
And funny smell,
But still I love him.

[Verse 1]
I built a little home for him in the back of the shed.
I gathered up some nice soft grass and made a bushy bed.
I forgot to tell anybody he was there,
'Cause I don't think that Striper really likes when people stare.

I brought him some water and some kitty food.
He didn't eat a lot of it which seemed a little rude.
He's such a funny kitty-- guess what he ate instead:
Half the grass I gathered that made up his soft bed!

[Chorus]
Striper the kitty.
I found him all alone.
It would have been a pity,
Not to bring him home.
There's no other kitty,
Like my new best friend,
With a big striped tail,
And funny smell,
But still I love him.

[Verse 2]
My sister got suspicious of my sneaking around.
She followed me into the shed and you know who she found.
"This is my kitty Striper, please don't tell anyone,
I mean because they're busy and don't have much time for fun. "

My sister started laughing. Why I'll never know.
Then she said, "Believe me we have to let him go.
Maybe for now it's only me who knows you hid him there,
But soon the whole town will know that something's in the air. "

[Chorus]
Striper the kitty.
I found him all alone.
It would have been a pity,
Not to bring him home.
There's no other kitty,
Like my new best friend,
With a big striped tail,
And funny smell,
But still I love him.

[Verse 3]
So we went back to the place where Striper and I met.
We let him roam around awhile but saw no mama yet.
Then sticking up out of the grass I saw a big tall tail.
It was black and white and striped and it kinda smelled.

Striper scampered to his mom and she scampered to him.
They touched their little noses and then touched them again.
Striper looked back at me and then he blinked goodbye.
Then they ran off together while I laughed and cried.

[Chorus]
Striper the kitty.
I found him all alone.
It would have been a pity,
Not to bring him home.
There's no other kitty,
Like my new best friend,
Even though,
He had to go,
I'll always love him.
Maybe one day,
When I go play,
I'll see him again.
