Performance by Duncan Wells

Well, the cats were scurryin’ cross the floor
Slidin’ on the hardwood, fightin’ at the door
A tin can opened, everybody heard
Everybody’s hungry, foods bein’ served.

Wait for the dinner bell, ooh ooh mama
Wait for the dinner bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling
Wait for the dinner bell, ooh ooh mama
Can you hear the dinner bell ring

All around the pie plates, lappin’ at the milk
All the little cats, Brownie, Sue, and Bill
Tiger and Veronica, Blackie, Sook an’ Joe
Dining on the floor by the old wood stove

Wait for the dinner bell, ooh ooh mama
Wait for the dinner bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling
Wait for the dinner bell, ooh ooh mama
Can you hear the dinner bell ring

Everybody’s full, time to get a nap
Lyin’ on the floor or on the old man’s lap
Over by the radio everyone’s asleep
They’re waitin’ for the next time the dinnerbell rings

Wait for the dinner bell, ooh ooh mama
Wait for the dinner bell, ring-a-ling-a-ling
Wait for the dinner bell, ooh ooh mama
Can you hear the dinner bell ring
