Three little kittens they lost their mittens, and they began to cry,
"Oh mother dear, we sadly fear our mittens we have lost."
"What! Lost your mittens, you naughty kittens! 
Then you shall have no pie."
"Meeow, meeow, meeow."
The three little kittens found their mittens,
And they began to cry,
"Oh mother dear, see here, see here 
Our mittens we have found."
"What! Found your mittens, you good little kittens
Then you shall have some pie"
"Purr, purr, purr."
The three little kittens put on their mittens
And soon ate up the pie,
"Oh mother dear, we greatly fear 
Our mittens we have soiled."
"What! soiled you mittens, you naughty kittens!"
Then they began to sigh, "Meeow, meeow, meeow"
The three little kittens washed their mittens
And hung them out to dry,
"Oh mother dear, look here, look here! 
Our mittens we have washed."
"What! washed your mittens, you darling kittens."
But hush! I smell a rat close by, 
Yes, we smell a rat close by.
"Meeow, meeow, meeow"
