Kitty, I am in love with you
Language: English
Refrain Kitty I am in love with you, Kitty I am asthore; Kitty I am in love with you whether you like it or no. I was on top of Mount Brandon, and she in the valley below; I took off my shoes and my stockings, to follow my Kitty-eye-O. (Refrain) I have a foot for a stocking, and I have a leg for a shoe; I have a kiss for the ladies, and maybe some other thing too. (Refrain) I have a pan and a keeler, and a churn as white as the snow; O Kitty my dear, will you marry me; love, with your dove will you go? (Refrain)
