Suatu malam saat aku pulang,
So drunk I could not see
Jadi mabuk aku tidak bisa melihat
I got tangled up in the old doormat
Aku terjerat dalam keset tua
Fell flat as I could be
Jatuh datar seperti aku bisa
And I had me a little old bottle of rum
Dan aku punya sebotol rum rum
And I did have any more and
Dan aku memang punya lagi dan
The cap fell of when I fell down
Topinya jatuh saat aku terjatuh
And I spilled it on the floor
Dan aku menumpahkannya di lantai
Then a rat come out from his hiding place
Kemudian seekor tikus keluar dari tempat persembunyiannya
And he got that whiskey scent
Dan dia mencium bau wiski itu
Well he ran right up and got a little shot
Yah dia berlari ke kanan dan mendapat sedikit tembakan
And back to his hole he went
Dan kembali ke lubangnya ia pergi
Right back to his whole he went
Kembali ke keseluruhannya dia pergi
Right back to his whole he went
Kembali ke keseluruhannya dia pergi
Well he ran right up and got a little shot
Yah dia berlari ke kanan dan mendapat sedikit tembakan
And back to his hole he went
Dan kembali ke lubangnya ia pergi
Then the rate come out of his hole once more
Kemudian tingkat keluar dari lubangnya sekali lagi
Sidled up to the gin on the floor
Sambil tersandung ke gin di lantai
He was a little bit shy
Dia sedikit malu
But he winked one eye
Tapi dia mengedipkan mata
And he got him a little bit more
Dan dia mendapatkan dia sedikit lebih
And he didn't go back to his hole this time
Dan dia tidak kembali ke lubangnya kali ini
But stayed by the puddle of gin
Tapi tinggal di genangan genangan gin
And he said “Doggone my pop-eyed soul,
Dan dia berkata “Doggone jiwa pop-mataku,
I'm gonna get drunk again!”
Aku akan mabuk lagi! “
And he washed his face with his front feet
Dan dia membasuh wajahnya dengan kaki depannya
And on his hind legs he sat
Dan di kaki belakangnya ia duduk
With a twisted smile and a half-closed eye
Dengan senyum terpelintir dan mata setengah tertutup
Says,”Where's that doggone cat?”
Katanya, “Di mana kucing doggone itu?”
And he didn't go back to his hole
Dan dia tidak kembali ke lubangnya
He said, “Doggone my soul, I'm only a rat
Dia berkata, “Doggone jiwaku, aku hanya seekor tikus
But a doggone cat can't run me back to my hole.”
Tapi seekor kucing doggone tidak bisa mengantarku kembali ke lobangku. “
His little old eyes begin to shine
Mata kecilnya yang kecil mulai bersinar
And he kapped up more and more
Dan dia semakin banyak bicara
And it made me glad that I had stumbled
Dan itu membuat saya senang karena saya telah tersandung
And spilled it on the floor
Dan menumpahkannya ke lantai
But soon the puddle of rum was gone
Tapi genus rum segera hilang
And I didn't have any more gin
Dan aku tidak punya gin lagi
And the little old rat was having a time
Dan tikus tua kecil itu sedang bersenang-senang
And the old tom cat come in
Dan kucing tua itu masuk
Well the cat made a pass
Nah kucing itu lulus
And the rat made a dash
Dan tikus itu sedikit berlari
And his boldness faded then
Dan keberaniannya memudar saat itu
The cat jumped over
Kucing itu melompat mendekat
And the rat got sober
Dan tikus itu menjadi sadar
And ran back to his hole again.
Dan berlari kembali ke lubangnya lagi.
Ran back to his hole again.
Berlari kembali ke lubangnya lagi.
Well, that cat jumped over
Nah, kucing itu melompat mendekat
And the rat got sober
Dan tikus itu menjadi sadar
And ran back to his hole again.
Dan berlari kembali ke lubangnya lagi.
Ran back to his hole again.
Berlari kembali ke lubangnya lagi.
