Lyrics

[Verse]
On the porch swing, watching the world go by,
Got me a Maine Coon with a twinkle in her eye,
She waves her tail like a star-spangled banner,
But her politics, man, they're in a whole 'nother manner.

[Verse 2]
Every time I turn on that Fox News,
She curls up tight like she's got the blues,
Purrs along with CNN at night,
My cat, she's a Democrat, ain't that right.

[Chorus]
Oh Mittens, why you gotta be so blue,
This old heart of mine, it just never knew,
In a world divided, we've come so far,
But my cat's a Democrat, my furry little star.

[Verse 3]
She don’t hunt mice, just wears a grin,
Prefers recycling to a trash can bin,
Loves solar power and climate talk,
While I still lean red in this ol' Polk County block.

[Bridge]
Late at night, when the stars align,
She’ll jump on my lap, and everything’s fine,
Politics aside, love is true,
No party line can come between me and you.

[Verse 4]
So we coexist, like the flag on the pole,
Different colors, but just one soul,
Her meows are votes in a ballot box,
But my heart’s with her, and that just rocks.
