Intro:

A
    I got an old tom cat
                      E
And when he steps out
                    A                       D7
All the other cats     in the neighborhood
A      E      A
They begin to shout

Verse 1:
A
There goes a ring tail tom
A                    E
Struttin' 'round the town
A                   D
And if you got your heat turned up
           A         E      A
You better turn your damper down

Verse 2:
A
Ringtail tom is the stuff
         A                E
He's the boss around this town
A                 D
He don't allow no other tom cats
     A     E        A
Come pussy footin' around

Verse 3:
A
Ringtail tom on the fence
A                       E
Little pussy cat on the ground
A                   D
Ringtail tom come-a-off-a that fence
A          E        A
They start rousin’ around

Verse 4:
A
Ringtail tom is the stuff
       A                  E
He's a natural born crack shot
A                     D
He finds a new target every night
       A         E          A
And he sure does practice a lot
