When I first came to town
They called me the roving jewel
Now they`ve changed their tune
They call me Katy Cruel
Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day
Oh that I was where I would be
Then I would be where I am not
Here I am where I must be
Go where I would, I can not
Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day
When I first came to town
They brought me the bottles plenty
Now they`ve changed their tune
They bring me the bottles empty
Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day
CHORUS
I know who I love
And I know who does love me
I know where I`m going
And I know whose going with me
Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day
CHORUS
Down the road I go
And through the boggy mire
Straight way cross the field
And to my heart`s desire
Oh, diddle day, oh, diddle lie o day
CHORUS
