Lyrics for Katie Cruel

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
