Kitty Lyrics by Joan Baez

The First Lady of Folk 1958-1961

0

[Intro]
Out in the wide world Kitty, pretty Kitty
Out in the wide world Kitty, far across the sea

[Verse 1]
My Kitty sailed away from me
To strange and distant lands
And when I asked a goodbye kiss
She said, "Oh no, shake hands"

[Chorus]
Out in the wide world Kitty, pretty Kitty
Out in the wide world Kitty, far across the sea

[Verse 2]
When Kitty left she said she'd write
He promised her the same
But his address somehow got lost
And she forgot his name

[Outro]
Out in the wide world Kitty, pretty Kitty
Out in the wide world Kitty, far across the sea
