Katie Did

Katie Did

(David Crosby and Jeff Pevar)

One, two, three ...

[Intro. (Electric Guitar)]

Over the northern border

Up where it's always been

Out in the great wheat ocean

There lives a great north wind

It blew around Katies' ankles

It blew all around her feet

Blew her mind into the snowdrift

Along the edges of the street

Katie did, Katie did

Katie did what had to be done

Katie did, Katie did

What she did was run

She ran down to the music

She ran down to the light

Feel the drumbeat movin' her feet

Made her just as high as a kite

She had been singing along with the records

Pretending she was in front of the band

She had a pretty good ear and legs up to here

When she did it she felt just grand

[Instrumental (Electric Guitars)]

She went down to Chicago

She went down to LA

Sometimes no one listened sometimes they did

Sometimes she got to play

But sometimes she'd miss her wheatfield

A sky like a big blue bowl

Guitar would start talking to her heart

The girl was meant to rock and roll

Katie did, Katie did

Katie did what had to be done

Katie did, Katie did

Katie did what had to be done

Katie did, Katie did

Katie did what had to be done

[Instrumental Ending (Electric Guitars)]
