Old Deuteronomy (From The Motion Picture Soundtrack "Cats") - Robbie Fairchild

Lyrics by：T.S. Eliot/Andrew Lloyd Webber

Composed by：Andrew Lloyd Webber

Old Deuteronomy's lived a long time

She's a Cat who has lived many lives in succession

She was famous in Proverb and famous in rhyme

A long while before Queen Victoria's accession

Old Deuteronomy's lived many lives

No I am tempted to say ninety-nine

And her numerous progeny prospers and thrives

And the village is proud of her in her decline

At the sight of that placid and bland physiognomy

When she sits in the sun on the vicarage wall

Oldest inhabitant croaks

Well of all things can it be really

Yes no ho hi oh my eye

My mind may be wandering but I confess

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

Well of all things can it be really

Yes no ho hi oh my eye

My mind may be wandering but I confess

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

Well of all things can it be really

Yes no ho hi oh my eye

My mind may be wandering but I confess

I believe it is Old Deuteronomy

Well of all things can it be really

Yes no ho hi oh my eye

My legs may be tottery I must go slow

And be careful of Old Deuteronomy
