With perhaps a drop of scotch while I was busy keeping on the watch In the watches of the night I was always fresh and bright They can leave all that to the railway cat To know that they wouldn't be bothered by mice They ought to reflect that it was very nice When they crept into their cozy berth and pulled the counterpane "Do you like your morning tea weak or strong?"īut I just behind him and was ready to remind him Then the guard looked in politely and would ask you very brightly ![]() There was every sort of light you could make it dark or brightĪnd a button you could turn to make a breezeĪnd a funny little basin you're supposed to wash your face inĪnd a crank to shut the window should you sneeze It was very pleasant when they'd found their little denĪnd the berth was very neat with a newly folded sheet on So nothing went wrong on the northern mail You could play no pranks with Skimbleshanks Of hilarity and riot so that folk were very quiet He would watch you without winking and he saw what you were thinking He established control by a regular patrolĪnd he'd know at once if anything occurred Of the travellers in the first and the third You might say that by and large it was me who was in chargeįrom the driver and the guards to the bagmen playing cardsĭown the corridor he paces and examines all the faces Skimbleshanks, the railway cat, the cat of the railway train They'd be off at last for the northern part of the northern hemisphere! Then he gave one flash of his glass-green eyes That's when I would appear and I'd saunter to the rear Saying "Skimble, where is Skimble for unless he's very nimbleĪt eleven forty-two with the signal overdue We must find him or the train can't start!"Īll the guards and all the porters and the stationmaster's daughters Saying, "Skimble, where is Skimble has he gone to hunt the thimble ![]() There's a whisper down the line at eleven thirty-nine ![]() Skimbleshanks the railway cat, the cat of the railway train Skimbleshanks The Railway Cat (Cats) Letra de Andrew Lloyd WebberĪndrew Lloyd Webber Letra de canción de música
