Katie Cruel |
Well when I first came to town |
They called me the roving jewel |
Now they’ve changed their tune |
They call me Katie Cruel |
And when I first came to town |
They bought me drinks a’plenty |
Now they’ve changed their tune |
Hand me the bottles empty |
And if I was where I would be |
Then I’d be where I am not |
Here I am where I must be |
Where I would be, I cannot |
Oh diddle aye, hum diddle aye, diddle ay |
Through the woods I am going |
Down through the boggy mires |
Straightway down the road |
And to my heart’s desire |
And if I was where I would be |
Then I’d be where I am not |
Here I am where I must be |
Where I would be, I cannot |
Oh diddle aye, hum diddle aye, diddle ay |
Well when I first came to town |
They called me the roving jewel |
Now they’ve changed their tune |
They call me Katie Cruel |
And when I first came to town |
They bought me drinks a’plenty |
Now they’ve changed their tune |
Hand me the bottles empty |
And if I was where I would be |
Then I’d be where I am not |
Here I am where I must be |
Where I would be, I cannot |
Oh diddle aye, hum diddle aye, diddle ay |
