Little Lioness:

You look out for our babies
Keep them clean and fed
Take good care of business
While I'm flaked out on the bed

You run down to the corner
Bring me something nice to eat
I don’t have any favourites
But you know I love my meat

(Ch)
You’re my little lioness
And I’m your ‘mane’ man
Sexy mama knows what’s best
So I just help out where I can

If there’s any trouble
I’ll back you up of course
In this teeming concrete jungle
You need a show of force

When younger cats come sniffing
I see them on their way
Then give you lots of loving
So you won’t ever stray

(Ch)
You’re my little lioness
And I’m your ‘mane’ man
Sexy mama knows what’s best
So I just help out where I can

(Br)
Lately you been acting crazy
Telling daddy that he’s lazy
Showing me those feline claws
Take it easy babe because….

(Ch)
You’re my little lioness
And I’m your ‘mane’ man
Sexy mama knows what’s best
So I just help out where I can

Now I’m hungry sugar
How about a big juicy steak – rare!!!

Nice one Phil!
I'm writing about dogs while you do cats - what a hoot!
Really liked the concept and flow. Liked the near rhyme jungle and trouble - brilliant!
And your "mane" man - really clever!
A few things came to mind - keep or sweep:

Title could be "My Little Lioness" to give more info with just one extra word.
I send them on their way - gives an internal rhyme of send/them.
Then I double up my loving
So you won’t ever need to stray

You might need a show of force

Looking forward to hearing this to music
cheers
Paul

Hi Phil,

Top stuff.  This actual sung itself in my head and sounded really simple (though it isn't) - that's hard to achieve so well done.  Is it country & western?
