Luyện nghe bài hát Skimbleshanks, The Railway Cat

Skimbleshanks the cat
The cat of the railway

a whisper down the line at eleven thirty-nine
When the Mail's ready to depart
Saying, "Skimble, is Skimble?
Has he gone to the thimble?
We find him or the train can't start"

All the and all the porters
And the station master's
Would be high and low
Saying, "Skimble, where is
For unless he's very
Then the Night Mail just go"

At eleven forty-two with the overdue
And the all frantic to a man
That's when I would and I'd saunter to the rear
I'd been busy in the van

Then he one flash of his glass-green eyes
And the signal went 'All
They'd be off at for the northern part
of the Hemisphere

Skimbleshanks, the cat
The cat of the railway

You might say by and large
It was me who was in
Of the Car Express
From the and the guards
To the bagmen cards
I would supervise them all, more or

Down the corridor he paces and examines all the
Of the travelers in the and the third
He establishes by a regular patrol
And he'd at once if anything occurred

He would watch you without
And he saw what you were
And it's certain that he approve
Of hilarity and riot so that folk very quiet
Skimble was about and on the move

You could play no pranks Skimbleshanks
a cat that couldn't be ignored
So nothing went on the Northern Mail
When Skimbleshanks was

It was very pleasant when they'd found little den
their name written up on the door
And the berth was very with a newly folded sheet
And not a speck of dust the floor

There was every sort of light, you could it dark or bright
And a button you could turn to make a
And a little basin you're supposed to wash your face in
And a crank to the window should you sneeze

Then the guard looked in politely and would ask you very
"Do you like morning tea weak or strong?"
But I was right him and was ready to remind him
For Skimble won't let anything go

When they crept their cosy berth
And pulled up the
They all reflect, that it was very nice
To that they wouldn't be bothered by mice
They can all that to the railway cat
The cat of the train

Skimbleshanks, the cat
The cat of the railway

In the watches of the night, I was fresh and bright
now and then I'd have a cup of tea
With perhaps a drop of Scotch while I was keepin' on the
Only stopping here and there to catch a

They fast asleep at Crewe and so they never knew
That I was walkin' up and the station
They were sleeping all the I was busy at Carlisle
I met the station master with elation

They might see me at if I summoned by police
If there was they ought to know about
When got to Gallowgate there they did not have to wait
For Skimbleshanks help them to get out

And he gives you a of his long, brown tail
Which "I'll see you again"
You will meet without on the Midnight Mail
The cat of the railway

You will meet without on the Midnight Mail
The cat of the train
