Lyrics of Cathleen

A beautiful girl
A beautiful irish girl
A beautiful girl, cathleen

And if the song that i write is no good
Won't you listen to it, please anyway?
And if the words that i write are misunderstood
Won't you listen to them, please anyway?
This song is for cathleen

Cathleen, cathleen
A beautiful girl cathleen
Cathleen, cathleen
A beautiful girl cathleen

And if you hear i was kissing another
Don't be jealous, it's only your mother
So take it from father to daughter
This song is for cathleen

And if you hear that i kissed your sister
Don't be jealous, for how could i resist her
Don't be angry, for one day you might miss her
She's, oh so like cathleen

Cathleen, cathleen
A beautiful girl cathleen
Cathleen, cathleen
A beautiful girl cathleen

Cathleen, cathleen
A beautiful girl
A beautiful irish girl
A beautiful girl
A beautiful irish girl, cathleen

So if the song that i write is no good
Won't you listen to it, please anyway?
And if the words that i write are misunderstood
Listen to them, please anyway
This song is for cathleen

Cathleen, cathleen
A beautiful girl cathleen
Cathleen, cathleen
She's a beautiful girl cathleen

My cathleen, cathleen
A beautiful girl cathleen
Cathleen, cathleen

She's a beautiful girl
A beautiful irish girl
A beautiful girl
A beautiful irish girl, cathleen

Now shut up, go to bed
