Thread Name: Lyr Req: Kitty I Am in Love with You (from Moeran)
Subject: Lyr Add: KITTY (from Shegui)
It may perhaps be related to that, though distantly. A band called Shegui recorded the song that I think is meant, 20 or more years ago, as Kitty. I have an old tape of it, but unfortunately no proper details.
Kitty I am in love with you, Kitty I am, a stor; Kitty I am in love with you, Whether you like it or no.
And me on the top of Mount Brandon And she in the valley below; I'd take off my shoes and my stockings To follow sweet Kitty I O.
Kitty I am in love with you...
And I have a leg for a stocking And I have a foot for a shoe; I have a kiss for the ladies And maybe some other things too.
Kitty I am in love with you...
And I have a pan on the keel*, love, And I have a tongue white as snow; Kitty my love, will you go with me Love, with your love will you go.
Kitty I am in love with you, Kitty I am, a stor; Kitty I am in love with you, Whether you like it or no.
And me on the top of Mount Brandon And she in the valley below; I'd take off my shoes and my stockings To follow sweet Kitty I O.
Shegui, In the Wind (Highway Records SHP 105, 1982.
I am not sure about "pan on the keel", and I don't know where they got the song.
