Sam The Skull (The Glasgow Cat)
I'm a cat, I'm a cat,I'm a Glasgow cat and my name is Sam The Skull. I've got claws in my paws like a crocodile's jaws and a hied like a fairmer's bull. I'm no' the kind of cat that sits on the mat nor the kind that you gie a hug but I'm the kind of cat can swallie a rat or even the occaisional dog.
Noo I used to roam about in Shettleton where they all knew me by sight 'Here's the skull' 'here's the skull' you could here them yell as they vanished intae the night Noo the polis stations all aroond have bars on the windie sills but they're no to keep the prisoners in they're to keep oot Sam The Skull
I'm a cat, I'm a cat, I'm a Glasgow cat etc and my name is Sam The Skull.
Noo one fine day no' so long ago they all had had their fill and they sent for the R.S.P.C.A. to try and catch the Skull to try and catch the Skull There was naebody could get oot when I was aboot chasin all the weans up the close Wettlin on the shoes yodelin' the blues and nonchalantly pickin' my nose
I'm a cat, I'm a cat ,I'm a Glasgow cat and my name is Sam The Skull.etc
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Aboot half past two the boys in blue arrived in their Escort van Right roon the back one had a sack the other had a mallet in his hand I watched them creep tae the back of the close, Then I casually strolled tae the van I jumped through the door stuck my foot tae the floor everything had gone tae plan
You can hear them say doon Shettleston way, 'What became of Sam the Skull? He had claws in his paws like a crocodile's jaws, and a heid like a framer's bull.' just you tell them for me that I'm still running free and never a day is dull It may sound absurd but I'm livin' wi' a bird in a single end in Maryhill
I'm a cat, I'm a cat, I'm a Glasgow cat and my name is Sam The Skull. I've got claws in my paws like a crocodile's jaws and a hied like a fairmer's bull. I'm no' the kind of cat that sits on the mat nor the kind that you gie a hug but I'm the kind of cat that can swallie a rat or even the occaisional paws and all nutritional
even the occaisional dog.
