Lyrics:

Red rockin' robin, said 'Oh, Mama please
I'm beggin' you down on bended knees
I wanna go down, wanna jump and shout
Down on the corner where the cats hang out.
Down on the corner where the cats hang out.'

Mama said, 'Rockin', you're making me cry
But, a robin's gotta rock, and a bird's gotta fly
Before you make a jump and go out rockin' tonight
It's time I tell you a few facts of life.
It's time I tell you a few facts of life.

Cats will be cats, and cats will be cool
Cats can be callous and cats can be cruel
Cats will be cats, remember these words,
Cats will be cats and cat eat birds
Cats will be cats and cat eat birds

So, Robin live a while just use good sense
And better brush up on your self defense
It's a jungle out there and hunger strikes deep
You better take care, better watch where you sleep
You better take care, better watch where you sleep

Cats will be cats, and cats will be cool
Cats can be callous and cats can be cruel
Cats will be cats, remember these words,
Cats will be cats and cat eat birds
Cats will be cats and cat eat birds'

Red rockin' robin, said 'Oh, Mama please
I'm beggin' you down on bended knees
I wanna go down, wanna jump and shout
Down on the corner where the cats hang out.
Down on the corner where the cats hang out.'
