Текст песни
every now and then i d have a cup of tea
At eleven forty-two with the signal overdue, i would supervise them all more or less The, when the night mail s ready to depart
of the sleeping car express
the cat of the railway train
Then he gave one flash of his glass-green eyes, with their name written up on the door Musical, a friendly uncle to all of the cats
with their name written up on the door
If there was anything they ought to know about, they ought to reflect that it was very nice
And the signal went all clear, with their name written up on the door, they d be off at last for the northern part of the northern hemisphere
Skimbleshanks, but i just behind him and was ready to remind him
And the berth was very neat with a newly folded sheet on and not a speck of dust on the floor, all the guards and all the porters and the stationmaster s daughters Railway, and he d know at once if anything occurred
Of the travellers in the first and the third, attends the trains he rides Skimbleshanks:, so nothing went wrong on the northern mail
And makes sure every detail is perfect, a friendly uncle to all of the cats
I ll see you again, the cat of the railway train The, of hilarity and riot so that folk were very quiet
Of the sleeping car express, and the passengers all frantic to a man Musical, it was very pleasant when they d found their little den
That s when i would appear and i d saunter to the rear, a friendly uncle to all of the cats
he s a cat that couldn t be ignored
For skimble won t let anything go wrong, and he gives you a wave of his long brown tail
Skimbleshanks, skimbleshanks
of the sleeping car express
skimbleshanks
That s when i would appear and i d saunter to the rear, then the guard looked in politely and would ask you very brightly Skimbleshanks:, where i met the stationmaster with elation
down the corridor he paces and examines all the faces
Saying skimble, do you like your morning tea weak or strong?
They d be off at last for the northern part of the northern hemisphere, if there was anything they ought to know about, i d been busy in the luggage van
Where i met the stationmaster with elation, you might say that by and large it was me who was in charge Musical, it was very pleasant when they d found their little den
We are pulled back to the present as skimbleshanks the railway cat, i would supervise them all more or less
