Every morning she steps out on the porch
And every morning the neighborhood cats
Come up for their morning ritual

The cat lady goes inside
And the cats wait pateintly
A few minutes later
The cat lady emerges with food

She places the bowls on the porch
Then she notices a cat with a limp
So she takes the cat in
And sets its leg
She sets up the cat in his own private room

She goes back out to observe the other cats
Make sure no more are sick or hurt
The cat lady loves all
And takes care of all
The neighborhood cats

The neighborhood cats
Are her cats
And she shall care for them all
Until the day she passes away

Cold hands means a warm heart
