The contented suitor

My sweet girlfriend has a black pussy-cat

With soft fur, rustling and velvety,

And I, I have a shiny bald spot,

Shiny and slick and silvery.

My girlfriend's a lady of the voluptuous sort,

She lies on the sofa the whole year round,

Quite busily stroking the cat's fur for sport,

My God, how she dotes on that soft furry mound.

And when I at evening a visit make,

Then I hear the cat on her lap loudly purr,

While nibbling with her from the honey cake,

It trembles whenever I stroke its fur.

And if I desire to cares my darling

So that she might say "kitchie koo" to me,

Then I place the pussy upon my bald spot

So my girlfriend then pets it and laughs with glee.
