Leeder	Kitty Alone -- meaning? (40)	RE: Kitty Alone -- meaning?	04 Jul 02
Decayed Gaelic was of course my first thought. If so, it's curious that it ended up in two American songs as well. Could it be that "kitty alone" is another phrase like "whack fall the day", sort of vitrified nonsense? Do any of our Irish speakers or other scholars have speculations on what the Gaelic roots of "kitty alone" could be, if in fact it comes from Gaelic?
