Katy Daley



    Come on down the mountain, Katy Daley
    Come on down the mountain, Katy Daley
    Can't you hear us calling, Katy Daley
    We want to drink your good old mountain dew



With her old man she came from Tampararay
In the pioneer days of '42
Her old man was shot in Tombstone City
For the making of his good old mountain dew



  * Refrain



Wake up and pay attention Katy Daley
I am the judge that's gonna sentence you
All the boys at court has drunk the whiskey
And tell the truth, drink a little too



  * Refrain



So to the jail they took poor Katy Daley
And very soon the gates were opened wide
Angels came to court Katy Daley
Too her far across the Great Divide



  * Refrain
