Katie Cruel Songtext
von Lankum

Well when I first came to town
They called me the roving jewel
Now they′ve changed their tune
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
'Til I come 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
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
