Katy Cruel lyrics

[Verse 1]
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, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday

[Chorus]
Oh, that I was where I would be
Then I would be where I am not
Here am I where I must be
Go where I would, I can not
Oh, diddle, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday

[Verse 2]
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, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday

[Chorus]
Oh, that I was where I would be
Then I would be where I am not
Here am I where I must be
Go where I would, I can not
Oh, diddle, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday
[Verse 3]
Oh, I know who I love
And I know who does love me
I know where I'm going
And I know who's going with me
Oh, diddle, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday

[Chorus]
Oh, that I was where I would be
Then I would be where I am not
Here am I where I must be
Go where I would, I can not
Oh, diddle, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday

[Verse 4]
Oh, down the road I’ll go
And through the boggy mire
Straightway cross the field
And to my heart's desire
Oh, diddle, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday

[Chorus]
Oh, that I was where I would be
Then I would be where I am not
Here am I where I must be
Go where I would, I can not
Oh, diddle, lully-ay
Oh, little lioday
