KATY JONES REEL. AKA - "Kitty Jones." AKA and see "Blue Ribbon (The)," "Green Ribbon (The)," Irish, Reel. Recorded source Quinn diddled a few verses with the tune:

Oh she kicked me and she battered me.
She nearly broke my bones.
So that's the way she tattered me
My darling Katie Jones

Oh there was a little girl
And she lived in Mullingar,
And she lifted up her petticoat
A-la-la-la-la-la

See also the American variants under the titles "Colonel Crocket (1)," "Jenny on the Railroad," "Route (The)."
