Lyrics
I can still remember,
the first time that I saw your face
tears were rolling down your cheek ,
you dress your hair with lace
And I called you Katie Blue and you know that I do
but tell me Katie ,tell me Katie, Katie are you blue
I can still recall the days
and how we would laugh and we played
I said Katie you know you are my girl
and will be for all of my
days
Katie I love you. you know I really do
but tell me Katie ,tell me Katie
Katie are you blue
we were born to travel
we went from land to land
we saw the cities, our sons grew to be men
Katie I love you ,you know I really do
but tell me Katie ,tell me Katie
Katie are you blue
Cause I can still remember the first yime that I saw you face
Tears were rolling down your cheek ,
you dress your hair with
lace
and I called you Katie blue
and you know that I do
but tell me Katie tell me Katie
Katie are you blue
