Text: Joan Baez. Kitty.

(Traditional)

Out in the wide world Kitty, pretty Kitty.
Out in the wide world Kitty, far a cross the sea.

My Kitty sailed a way from me, to strange and distant lands,
And when I 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 address somehow got lost, and she forgot his name.

Out in the wide world Kitty, pretty Kitty.
Out in the wide world Kitty, far across the sea
