Jimmy was a soldier brave and bold Katie was a maid with hair of gold Like an act of fate, Kate was standing at the gate Watching all the boys on dress parade Kate smiled with a twinkle in her eye Jim said, 'Meet you b-b-bye and by.' That same night at eight, Jim was at the gate Stuttering this song to K-K-Katy Chorus: K-K-K-Katie, beautiful Katy You're the only g-g-g-girl that I adore When the m-m-m-moon shines, over the cow shed I'll be waiting at the k-k-k-kitchen door. No one ever looked so cute and neat No one could be just as cute and sweet That's what Jimmy thought, when the wedding ring he bought Dinky little home and all complete Jimmy thought he'd like to take a chance His heart did a sort of song and dance Stepping to a tune, all about the silvery moon Jimmy followed up his first advance.
