Nick Cave – Katy Cruel lyrics
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
