(Verse 1)
Well George came first by a minute or two,
Big Grey dreamer with a heart so true.
Always in the kitchen when he catches a smell,
If food hits the floor, Lord, he’s gettin’ there well.
He’ll curl on your lap when the daylight fades,
Purr like a motor while the evening sways.
But if little Louie gets himself in a jam,
George comes runnin’ like, “That’s my little man.”
(Chorus)
George and Louie,
Swingin’ through the room.
George and Louie,
Chasin’ away the gloom.
One’s lookin’ for supper,
One’s lookin’ for clues,
Two little brothers singin’
Those kitten-house blues.
(Verse 2)
Louie’s so skinny, got them white sock feet,
Tippin’ through the shadows with a sneaky little creep.
Every closed door’s got a mystery inside,
Every shelf’s a mountain he’s determined to climb.
Stickin’ his whiskers where they don’t belong,
Knockin’ things over and movin’ right along.
If curiosity’s trouble, then trouble’s his name,
But he’d do it all again exactly the same.
(Chorus)
George and Louie,
Swingin’ through the room.
George and Louie,
Chasin’ away the gloom.
One’s lookin’ for supper,
One’s lookin’ for clues,
Two little brothers singin’
Those kitten-house blues.
(Bridge)
Louie finds danger,
George finds Louie.
That’s how it’s been
Since they first could see.
One starts the trouble,
One finishes the fight,
Then they’re both asleep
By the middle of the night.
(Verse 3)
George wants cuddles,
Louie wants maps.
George wants dinner,
Louie climbs laps.
George says “Let’s wrestle,”
Louie says “Why?”
Then they’re tearin’ through the house
Like a storm blew by.
(Final Chorus)
George and Louie,
Hear those paws keep time.
George and Louie,
Like a sweet old rhyme.
One brave protector,
One wild-eyed muse,
Two little brothers playin’
Those kitten-house blues.
Yeah, George and Louie,
Those kitten-house blues.
