Walking with my Cat named Dog




What a haunting tune, I first heard it in the early 60s and find myself humming it quite often these days. Norma Tanega was Dusty Springfield's partner.




Norma Tanega "Walking with my Cat named Dog"

WALKING WITH MY CAT NAMED DOG

Walkin' all around the town, Singin' all the people down

Talkin' around, talkin' around

Me and my Cat named Dog, are walkin' high against the fog

Singin' the sun, singin' the sun

Happy sad and crazy wonder, chokin' up my mind

With perpetual dreamin'

Driftin' up and down the street, Searchin' for the sound of people

Swingin' their feet, swingin' their feet.

Dog is a good old cat, people what you think of that

That's where I'm at, that's where I'm at.

Happy sad and crazy wonder, chokin' up my mind

With perpetual dreamin' .. instr.

Dog is a good old cat, people what you think of that

That's where I'm at, that's where I'm at.

    Yep, sawit on the Dusty special.
    My girlfriend loved Nina in the early '60s (older bro). I have only really heard her recently. Think she's on utube.
    I see you are doing the rounds AND it's little 'r' signed Prof Minerva BP (Bachelor of Punctuation). I have also learned that one can over punctuate, got italics and quotation
