Kathleen, Kathleen, oh, my baby's name is Kathleen, Kathleen, oh, all the others think she's quite the thing, quite the thing, lovin' Dolly, Kathleen, uh-huh.
Lovely dream, yes my baby is a lovely dream
When you see her you'll know what I mean
Loving Dolly Kathleen
Jukebox playing baby, bobby socks or maybe
All these things and then some more
But she's the one I adore
Magazines, magazines
Cokes and candy make the perfect queen
Even in a pair of old blue jeans
Loving Dolly Kathleen
Loving Dolly Kathleen
Some may find it tragic
Strangely though by magic
Of her love for me
Other loves have died and gone
But mine for her lingers on
Kathleen
I can never make her mine it seems
Her ambition is the movie screen
Loving Dolly Kathleen
Loving Dolly Kathleen
Loving Dolly Kathleen
Loving Dolly Kathleen
Loving Dolly Kathleen
