_ [Ab] _ _ _ I got an old [Ebm] tomcat _ [B] _ [Ab] _ _ _ _
and when he steps [Eb] out _ _
_ _ _ _ All [Ab] the other cats [Ebm] _ _ in the [Db] neighborhood _
They _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Eb]
begin _ [Ab] to shout
_ [G] _
[Ab] There goes a ring-tailed tom _ _
Stuck _ [Eb] by the town _ _
[Ab] _ And if you got [Db] your heat turned up
You [Ab] better [Eb] turn your temper [Ab] down _
_ Ring-tailed tom is a stump _
He's a boss [Eb] around the town _
_ [Ab] He don't allow [Db] no other tomcats
[Ab] Come across [Eb] that foot of [Ab] the line _
_ Ring-tailed tom on the fence _
_ Little pussycat [Eb] on the ground
_ [Ab] Ring-tailed tom [Db] come off the flat fence
[Ab] They [Eb] start [Ab] rousting around _
_ Ring-tailed tom is a stump

[Ab] And he sure [Eb] does [Ab] practice some luck _
