Katy (Live At the Marquee Club, London) - Tom Paxton

Oh I have a little daughter and my daughter's name is Kate

And she's every bit mischievous as a kitten on a skate

With a bandage on her forehead

And the bruises on her knees

You would swear she'd fought with buccaneers

Upon the seven seas

For it's up the stairs and down the stairs

And in the room and out

Like a miniature tornado she can blow the house about

Take an angel with the devil in the twinkling of her eye

And that's my katy little lady and I love her

Now you might of heard in miracles

You might believe in saints

But you'd never believe my katy

When she's playing with her paints

For there's red upon the window

And there's green upon her face

On the wall

In her hair

But on the paper not a trace

When she's in her room and quiet

And there comes a bit of calm

You develop the sensation

That you're sitting on a bomb

Take an angel with the devil

In the twinkling of her eye

And that's my katy little lady and I love her

My katy loves her games

You know a thirty times a week

I find myself dragooned into a game of hide and seek

So I find myself in closets under beds I quietly creep

And I wait for thirty minutes

'Till my brain has gone to sleep

Yes I sit there in the closet

And it seems like half a day

'Till I find a friend has come to call

And kate's gone out to play

Take an angel with the devil in the twinkling of her eye

That's my katy little lady and I love her

Now you might have heard of daddies

Who would dote upon their girls

Who get wrapped around their fingers

By the tossing of the curls

Who respond to hugs and kisses

'Till there's nothing they wouldn't do

Don't you ever believe a word if it it simply isn't true

For I'd only jump the moon

For her I'd only jump the sea

For the hugs I get to give her

And the kisses she gives to me

Take an angel with the devil

In the twinkling of her eye

That's my katy little lady and I love her

Take an angel with the devil

In the twinkling of her eye

That's my katy little lady and I love her
