Thread Name: Lyr Req: Out in the wide world, Kitty?
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Out in the wide world, Kitty?
The song is much older than Baez, I seem to remember there are 4 stanzas, Baez sings only the last 2 :
His Kitty sailed away from him to far and distant land And when he asked a goodbye kiss She said oh no, shake hands
Out in the wide world Kitty, pretty Kitty Out in the wide world Kitty Far across the sea
When Kitty left, she said she'd write He promised her the same But his adress somehow got lost And she forgot his name
