My Kitten

by Lucy M. Edmunds

My kitten is the prettiest
And smartest in the town.
He sings to me 'most all the time,
And follows me up and down.

I call his name Tuxedo Cause he's a high class cat;
I couldn't call him Tommy,
Or a common name like that.

Besides he has a white bow tie.
He keeps his fur so slick,
He looks so dressed up all the time,
I couldn't call him Dick.

So I'll call him Tuxedo
'Cause he's a special cat.
I always will be good to him,
And he'll grow sleek and fat.
