Lyrics
Once upon a time
Up a tree a baby cat did climb
And she did fall from a broken twig
But was caught by Rescue Pig
Rescue Pig! Rescue Pig!
Just in time came Rescue Pig!
Rescue Pig! Rescue Pig!
Saving kittens Rescue Pig!
In these wild lawless parts
You can't depend on just your smarts
Or muscles no matter how big
Thankfully there's Rescue Pig
Rescue Pig! Rescue Pig!
Porcine hero Rescue Pig!
Rescue Pig! Rescue Pig!
We believe in Rescue Pig!
Rescue Pig had a mishap
Sow succored into Luau Joe's trap
A great big hole he began to dig
For to roast that Rescue Pig
Rescue Pig! Rescue Pig!
Who will rescue Rescue Pig?
Rescue Pig! Rescue Pig!
To be continued. Rescue Pig...
