[N] [D]
I [G] have a Gumby [D] cat in mind, her [C] name is Jenny [D] and he dance.
Her [Am] coat is [Gbm] of the [Em] tabby kind, [G] with [C] tiger stripes and leopard [B] spots.
All day [G] she sits beneath [Gb] the stair, or [C] on the steps, or [Bm] on the mat.
She [A] sits [C] and [Gb] sits and [Em] sits and sits, and [F] that's what makes a Gumby [C] cat.
[Eb] That's [C] what makes a
[B] Gumby [Em] cat.
[C] But when the day's hustle and bustle [Dm] is done, then the Gumby cat's work is but [Ab] hardly begun.
[Cm] When all the family's a-darin' asleep, [Ab] she tucks up her [C] skirt to the basement to creep.
[Ab] She's deeply concerned [Bb] with the ways of the mice.
Their behavior's [Eb] not good and [Ab] their manner's not nice.
[Db] So when she has got them lined up on the matting, she [G] teaches them music, [Cm] crocheting and catting.

[Dm] [Eb] [D]
[G] have a Gumby [D] cat in mind, [C] her name is Jenny [Bm] and he dance.
[Am] The curtain cord she [Em] likes to wind and [F] tie it into [B]
sailor knots.
[G] She sits upon the [D] windowsill, [C] or anything [Bm] that's smooth and flat.
[Am] She sits and sits and sits [Em] and sits, [F] and that's what makes [Bb] a [B] Gumby [C] cat.
[E]
That's [A] what makes [Bm] a
[B] Gumby [E] cat.
But [Cm]
when the day's hustle and bustle is [Am] done, then [Ab] the Gumby cat's work [C] is but hardly begun.
She thinks that the [Eb] cockroaches just need employment [G] to prevent them [Am] from idle [C] and wanton destruction.
So she's [Ab] borne from the lot [Bb] of disorderly louts, [Eb] a troop of well-disciplined, [Ab] helpful boy scouts.
With a purpose in life [Db] and a goodly to-do, and [G] she's even created a Beatles tattoo.
