[Verse1]
厝邊有流浪貓一片 (家旁邊有流浪貓一片)
There are stray cats next to my house
貓囝是生滿滿是 (小貓是生的滿滿都是)
Kittens are born everywhere
攏無人來管理 (都沒人來管理)
No one manages
阿母看伊可憐嘎伊飼 (母親看她可憐就養牠們)
Her mother took pity on her and raised them
貓一飼著幾若年 (貓一養就是好幾年)
I keep cats for several years.
動保毋捌來關心 (動保都不曾來關心)
Animal protection never came to care
貓有時破病時去 (貓有時生病時)
Sometimes when a cat is sick
我看伊煩惱飯食未落去 (我看她煩腦到飯都吃不下去)
I saw that she was so upset that she couldn't eat.

[Chorus1]
貓雖然真古錐 (貓雖然很可愛)
Cats are cute though
嘛會有創治的時 (也有會捉弄的時候)
There are times when I play tricks on you
日時是睏嘎像死豬 (白天是睡得像死豬)
Sleeping like a dead pig during the day
半暝會吵嘎你睏袂去 (半夜是吵到你睡不著)
It's so noisy that you can't sleep in the middle of the night
貓看伊好脾氣 (貓看到牠好脾氣)
The cat sees it in a good mood
個性真正有夠皮 (個性真正有夠皮)
A really naughty personality
沙踢嘎規塗跤攏是 (沙踢到地上都是)
The sand kicked onto the ground is
貓毛是落嘎規大堆 (貓毛是掉一大堆)
Cat hair is falling off a lot

[Verse2]
毋管是好天也歹天 (不管好天氣來是壞天氣)
Whether it's good weather or bad weather
叫一隻後綴一陣 (叫一隻後來一群)
Call one and then a group
飼料要有攪魚 (飼料要加魚)
Add fish to feed
阿母講貓越來越歹飼 (母親說貓是越來越挑食)
My mother said that cats are becoming more and more picky about food.
厝內代誌先放一邊 (家事先放一邊)
Put it aside at home
尚驚拄著落雨天 (最怕遇到下雨天)
I'm most afraid of rainy days
貓是藏去佗位 (貓是躲到哪裡去)
Where is the cat hiding?
心情親像是欲去掉點滴 (心情像是要去吊點滴)
I feel like I'm about to get an IV drip

[Chorus2]
欲飼貓愛細膩 (要養貓要小心)
Be careful with cats
要有經濟來維持 (要有經濟來維持)
Economy is needed to maintain
飼料錢是貴嘎欲死 (飼料錢是貴得要死)
Feed is damn expensive.
破病閣愛開錢看獸醫 (生病還要花錢看獸醫)
If you are sick, you have to spend money to see a veterinarian)
你若是無插伊 (你要是不管牠)
If you ignore it
等咧性命著無去 (等一下生命就沒了)
Wait a minute, your life will be gone.
看著伊佇直直看你 (看著牠一直看著你)
Watch it keep watching you
像講伊想欲活落去 (像牠在說他想活下去)
It's like it wants to live

[Bridge]
飼一半放生尚夭壽 (養一半放生的最惡劣)
The worst thing is to raise half of the animals and release them
只要你好好照顧伊 (只要你好好照顧牠)
As long as you take good care of it
伊會永遠愛你 (牠會永遠愛你)
It will love you forever
敢講你忍心放提做你去 (難道你忍心拋棄牠隨你去)
Do you have the heart to abandon it and go wherever you want?

[Chorus3]

There are times when I play tricks on you

The cat sees it in a good mood
個性真正有夠皮 (個性真正有夠皮)
A really naughty personality
