Back to Kitty will you marry me?


KITTY, WILL YOU MARRY ME? Irish, Air (4/4 time). D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). One part. "I write this from memory, with one verse of a song I heard sung to it:--

Oh, Kitty, will you marry me? or Kitty I will die;
Then Kitty, you'll be fretting for your loving little boy.
Oh, Kitty, can't you tell me will you marry me at all;
Or else I'll surely go to sleep inside the churchyard wall. ... (Joyce)
