Thread Name: Tune Add: Catches = longer rounds
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Catches = longer rounds
Didn't find this on DT (or in a Google search), so I'll post it here. I learned it (at a Morris Ale --in Colorado, I think) from a woman who said it was written by her music teacher who taught at her school -- so I'm afraid I don't know who wrote it (if anyone does, I'd be interested in knowing, as I put it on a recording & would pay royalties if I knew who they oughta go to).

A Cat Has Paws

A cat has paws (rest) as soft (rest) as gauze (rest)
But when he wars, look out, because a cat has claws
If you have cause (rest) to an(rest)ger yours (rest)
You'd bet-ter pause; you'd better pause and read this clause
A cat has paws (etc)

Am not quite sure how to provide the tune, as I'm not a techie sort, but will try if someone can suggest a method.

Cheers,

YY
