The Cat That Walked by Himself

Joseph Rudyard Kipling

PUSSY can sit by the fire and sing,

Pussy can climb a tree,

Or play with a silly old cork and string

To'muse herself, not me.

But I like Binkie my dog, because

He Lnows how to behave;

So, Binkie's the same as the First Friend was,

And I am the Man in the Cave.
