Katie Cruel

When I first came to town

They called me the rovin' jewel

Now they've changed their tune

Call me, Katie cruel

Through the woods I go

And through the boggy mire

Straight way down the road

Till I come to my heart's desire

If I was where I would be

Then I'd be where I am not

Here I am where I must be

And where I would be I cannot

When I first came to town

They bought me drinks aplenty

Now they've changed their tune

And hand me the bottles empty

If I was where I would be

Then I'd be where I am not

Here I am where I must be

And where I would be I cannot
