Old Deuteronomy - Singer & The London Starlight Orchestra[00:00:00]

Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time[00:00:33]

He's a cat who has lived many lives in succession[00:00:38]

He was famous in proverb and famous in rhyme[00:00:43]

A long while before Queen Victoria's accession[00:00:49]

Old Deuteronomy's buried nine wives[00:00:55]

And more I am tempted to say ninety-nine[00:01:00]

And his numerous progeny prospers and thrives[00:01:05]

And the village is proud of him in his decline[00:01:10]

At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy[00:01:16]

When he sits in the sun on the vicarage wall[00:01:22]

The Oldest Inhabitant croaks[00:01:27]

Well of all things can it be really[00:01:32]

Yes No Ho Hi Oh my eye [00:01:38]

My mind may be wandering but I confess[00:01:43]

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy [00:01:49]

Old Deuteronomy sits in the street[00:02:17]

He sits in the high street on market day[00:02:21]

The Bullocks may bellow the sheep they may bleat[00:02:27]

But the dogs and the herdsmen will turn them away[00:02:32]

The cars and the lorries run over the curb[00:02:38]

And the villagers put up a notice Road closed[00:02:44]

So that nothing untoward may chance to disturb[00:02:49]

Deuteronomy's rest when he feels so disposed[00:02:54]

The digestive repose of that feline's gastronomy[00:03:00]

Must never be broken whate'er may befall[00:03:05]

The Oldest Inhabitant croaks[00:03:11]

Well of all things can it be really[00:03:15]

Yes No Ho Hi Oh my eye[00:03:22]

My mind may be wandering but I confess[00:03:27]

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy[00:03:32]

Well of all things can it be really[00:03:37]

Yes No Ho Hi Oh my eye[00:03:44]

My legs may be tottery I must go slow[00:03:49]

And be careful of Old Deuteronomy[00:03:54]
