They called me the roving jewel
Now they've changed their tune
They call me katy cruel
Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day
Oh that i was where i would be
Then i would be where i am not
Here i am where i must be
Go where i would, i can not
Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day
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 day, oh diddle lie o day
Chorus
I know who i love
And i know who does love me
I know where i'm going
And i know whose going with me
Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day
Chorus
Down the road i go
And through the boggy mire
Straight way cross the field
And to my heart's desire
Oh, diddle day, oh, diddle lie o day
Chorus
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 day, oh diddle lie o day Oh that i was where i would be Then i would be where i am not Here i am where i must be Go where i would, i can not Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day 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 day, oh diddle lie o day Chorus I know who i love And i know who does love me I know where i'm going And i know whose going with me Oh diddle day, oh diddle lie o day Chorus Down the road i go And through the boggy mire Straight way cross the field And to my heart's desire Oh, diddle day, oh, diddle lie o day Chorus Explain Request ×
