Katy Lyrics

Katy's down by the cellar door
calls for me to go
back down to the clover
singing soft and low
singing soft and lowmy little one's mother is
holding him and crying
she hears Katy call my name
and I can see her dyingKaty says she loves me
I used to feel the same
walking by the old boneyard
calling out my namehand in hand we laid the deed
and evil we have done
evil I will do no more
to a mother and her sonKaty Katy stay away from me
I could never quit you, no
you gotta let me be
sharpened up my razor, picked a piece of ground
one of these dark and moonless nights

be the last aroundmy lover turns to walk away
and I follow close behind
trouble in my pocket
sorrow in my mind andhand in hand we laid the deed
and evil we have done
evil I will do no more
to a mother and her sonKaty Katy stay away from me
I could never quit you, no
you gotta let me be
sharpened up my razor, picked a piece of ground
one of these dark and moonless nights
be the last arounddark is finally coming on and
silence in the woods
would a man do over if the lord said that he couldgod it's too late now the night has come
trouble them no more
the cold steel blade across my neck
suffering will be overKaty Katy stay away from me
I could never quit you, no
you gotta let me be
sharpened up my razor, picked a piece of ground
one of these dark and moonless nights
will be the last around
