O diddle oh day, oh a diddle-oh aye-o day
First Verse (lead-on)
When first I came to town
They called me the roving jewel
Now they've changed their tune
They call me Katy Cruel
O diddle oh day, oh a diddle-oh aye-o day
Chorus:
O that I was what I would be
Then should I be what I am not
Here, I am where I must be
Where I would be I cannot
O diddle oh day, oh a diddle-oh aye-o day
Second verse (peel-off)
When first I came to town
They passed me the bottles plenty
Now they've changed their tune
They pass me the bottles empty
O diddle oh day, oh a diddle-oh aye-o day
Chorus
Third verse (hands-around)
I know who I love
And I know who does love me
I know where I'll go
And I know who'll go with me
O diddle oh day, oh a diddle-oh aye-o day
Chorus
Fourth verse (arming)
Through the woods I'll go
Through the boggy mire
Straight way down the road
Till I come to my heart's desire
O diddle oh day, oh a diddle-oh aye-o day
Chorus (ends on the last chorus)
