Standing by the subway

Waiting for the homeward bound train

My mind starts to flow down memory lane

Thinking 'bout a girl that I once knew

And had to let go even though it made me blue

She was a rich girl from a rich family

And I was so poor

She was the one who took us out to eat

'Til one day my pride took a hold of me

And I said

I'm sorry

I just got to leave

I said

Kathleen

Don't you fall in love with me

'Cause I'm no good for ya

Take another fish from the sea

Kathleen

Can you see just what I mean

Yeah

You're a high class girl and my

Low down world ain't your scene

Kathleen

Oh Kathleen

Said money doesn't mean a thing to me

'Cause after all

They say the best things in life are free

Girl did you hear what your daddy said

Rather than see us together

Oh he'd prefer to be dead

I said

Kathleen

Don't you fall in love with me

'Cause I'm no good for ya

Take another fish from the sea

My

Kathleen

Can you see just what I mean

You're a high class girl and my

Low down world ain't your scene

Now I realise what I said was wrong

I should have known

It was wrong all along

Much too late

'Cause now my girl she's

Gone

Gone

Gone

Gone

My Kathleen

Don't you fall in love with me

Don't be a fool child

'Cause I'm no good for ya

Take another fish from the sea

Begging you my

Kathleen

Can you see just what I mean

You're a high class girl and my

Low down world ain't your scene

You're a high class girl and my

Low down world ain't your scene

Kathleen

Don't you fall in love with me

Oh no

'Cause I'm no good for ya

Take another fish from the sea

My

Kathleen

Can you see just what I mean

You're a high class girl and my

Low down world ain't your scene
