《Old Deuteronomy》歌词

[00:00:00] Old Deuteronomy - Original Cast

[00:01:15] Old deuteronomy's lived a long time

[00:01:21] He's a cat who has lived many lives in succession

[00:01:26] He was famous in proverb and famous in rhyme

[00:01:32] A long while before queen victoria's accession

[00:01:38] Old deuteronomy's buried nine wives

[00:01:44] And more i am tempted to say ninety nine

[00:01:49] And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives

[00:01:55] And the village is proud of him in his decline

[00:02:01] At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy

[00:02:07] When he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall

[00:02:12] The oldest inhabitant croaks

[00:02:17] Well of all things can it be really

[00:02:24] Yes no ho hi oh my eye

[00:02:29] My mind may be wandering but i confess

[00:02:34] I believe it is old deuteronomy

[00:03:03] Old deuteronomy sits in the street

[00:03:08] He sits in the high street on market day

[00:03:14] The bullocks may bellow the sheep they may bleat

[00:03:19] But the dogs and the herdsmen will turn them away

[00:03:25] The cars and the lorries run over the curb

[00:03:30] And the villagers put up a notice road closed

[00:03:36] So that nothing untoward may chance to disturb

[00:03:41] Deuteronomy's rest when he feels so disposed

[00:03:47] The digestive repose of that felines gastronomy

[00:03:52] Must never be broken whatever may befall

[00:03:57] The oldest inhabitant croaks

[00:04:02] Well of all things can it be really

[00:04:09] Yes no ho hi oh my eye

[00:04:14] My mind may be wandering but i confess

[00:04:19] I believe it is old deuteronomy

[00:04:25] Well of all things can it be really

[00:04:31] Yes no ho hi oh my eye

[00:04:36] My legs may be tottery i must go slow

[00:04:42] And be careful of old deuteronomy
