Old Mister Johnson had troubles of his own
He had a yellow cat which wouldn’t leave his home
He tried and he tried to give the cat away
He gave it to a man goin’ far, far away

But the cat came back the very next day
The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back it just couldn’t stay
Awaaayyy

The farmer on the corner swore he’d kill the cat on sight
He loaded up his shotgun with nails and dynamite
He waited in the garden for the cat to come around
Ninety seven pieces of the man is all they found

But the cat came back the very next day
The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back it just couldn’t stay
Awaaayyy

He gave it to a man with a dollar note
He took him up the river in a boat
The boat turned over and was never found
Now they drag the river for a man that’s drowned

But the cat came back the very next day
The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back; it just couldn’t stay
Awaaayyy

But the cat came back the very next day
The cat came back, we thought he was a goner
But the cat came back; it just couldn’t stay
Awaaayyy
