With her old man she came from Temporary
                             G7
In the pioneer days of forty-two
Her old man was shot in Tombstone City

For the making of his good old mountain dew

Wake up and pay attention Katy Daley

I am the judge that's gonna sentence you
All the boys in court have drunk your whiskey
                                       C
And to tell the truth I drank a little too

Very soon the gates were open wide
The agents came for poor Katy Daley

They'll take her far across the Great Divide
