Peggy Lee - The Alley Cat Song Lyrics
He goes on the prowl each night,
Like an alley cat.
Looking for some new delight,
Like an alley cat.
And there's no doubt of that.
He just don't know wrong from right,
Like an alley cat.
He meets them..
And loves them..
And loves them...
Like the "Catsanova" does.
I mean that's no way to treat a pal,
Aren't you sorry for that gal,
With her alley cat?
He meets them..
And loves them..
And loves them..
Like the "Catsanova" does.
I mean that's no way to treat a pal,
She should tell him "Scat!"
Aren't you sorry for that gal,
With her alley cat?
Yeah, that's the sad, sad tale of a lonesome frail.
Yeah, that's the sad, sad tale of a lonesome frail and her alley cat.

Peggy Lee The Alley Cat Song Comments
What a cutie. And a nice, relaxing voice.
My teacher is teaching us the dance :p
Thanks for this delightful film.
I am 53, learned the dance at about 7 & I never heard this song w/words! Love it! Cute!

I don't know who the Hell that is in the picture, but it definitely is not Peggy Lee.
Sharon Tate?
i guess its a blonde woman who's representing an ally catting woman that would be my guess.
Looks kinda like Jean Shrimpton
Not even close to Peggy
She looks like a mix of Nancy Sinatra and Jane Fonda to me
The original title was Danish, translated; Around a piano.
Became a hit on the Amarican marked but was renamed to Alley Cat.
weird but interesting
My Kindergarten graduation song in 1963. The pianist played if purrfectly, and I have never forgotten it. I never knew it had lyrics until 40 years later when I heard this version w/ Peggy Lee singing it.
Notnannette Me too! 😸
to paraphrase Leon Redbone's "She ain't Rose..." The photo ain't Peggy , but she sure is sumthin'
Thanks for this posting; I like it and I like Peggy Lee very much. You should hear this song played by its author Bent Fabric or by Liberace: they are nice versions too.
I like Peter Sellers' story about the hooray who kept asking Alan Clare to play "That's What You Are" - after racking his brains, Alan gave up and said he was sorry, he didn't know it - then suggested the chap sing it. So the chap sang, "Unforgettable - that's what you are..."!
Thanks, Vinnie. Same for you, but avoid eating too much! And if you do, think of practicing some sporting
activity the day after! For me, it's usually two or three games of Ping Pong! Wiki? You mean Wikipedia, of course!
I found Peggy's song easily, even with the wrong title, since she doesn't have lots of songs dealing with cats, but it's true that a wrong title can be misleading sometimes.
Thanks for the heads-up, Victor. People looking for it might MISS it with the wrong title! Can't remember where I got the other title, but Wiki (my bible) says you're right, so I've amended it accordingly. Thanks - and a Happy New Year. Vinnie.
THE ALLEY CAT SONG (That's the correct title for this)
Hey, where's the Meow?
I've search around for this song for years
