Oh Senor Don Gato was a cat
On a high, red roof, Don Gato sat!
He was there to read a letter
(meow meow meow)
Where the reading light was better
(meow meow meow)
T'was a love note for Don Gato!

"I adore you" wrote the lady cat
She was fluffy white, and nice and fat!
There was not a sweeter kitty
(meow meow meow)
In the country or the city
(meow meow meow)
And she said she'd wed Don Gato!

Well Don Gato jumped so happily
He fell off the roof and broke his knee
He broke all his ribs and whiskers
(meow meow meow)
And his little solar plexus
(meow meow meow)
"Ay caraba!" cried Don Gato!

All the doctors they came on the run
Just to see if something could be done!
And they held a consultation
(meow meow meow)
About how to save their patient
(meow meow meow)
How to save Senor Don Gato!

But in spite of everything they tried...
Poor Senor Don Gato up and died
No it wasn't very merry
(meow meow meow)
Going to the cemetery
(meow meow meow)
For the ending of Don Gato...

But as the funeral passed the market square...
Such a smell of fish was in the air!
Though the burial was plated
(meow meow meow)
He became reanimated!
(meow meow meow)
He came back to life, Don Gato!

He came back! To life! Don Gato!
