K-K-K-Katy by Geoffrey O'Hara — Lyrics
About K-K-K-Katy
Imagine the scene: a group of soldiers, far from home in France during the First World War, yearning for the girl they left behind. This TTBB arrangement of Geoffrey O'Hara's K-K-K-Katy captures that sentiment with its familiar, catchy melody and nostalgic lyrics. The piece evokes a sense of longing and innocent devotion, ideal for a barbershop quartet or a male choir looking for a lighthearted yet touching number. The text paints a simple, romantic picture of waiting by the kitchen door under the moonlight, a universal theme that resonates across generations and settings, making it a charming addition to any concert program.
