: : : : : I have been listening to a song by Taj Mahal...the title is "She took the katy, left me a mule to ride.? I have surmised that katy must be some kind of transportation, but am not really sure of that. Some/any enlightenment in this regard would be appreciated.

: : : : googled the lyrics, and found a footmote:

: : : : She caught the Katy1, and left me a mule2 to ride
: : : : She caught the Katy, and left me a mule to ride
: : : : My baby caught the Katy, left me a mule to ride
: : : : The train pulled out, and I swung on behind
: : : : I'm crazy 'bout her, that hardheaded woman of mine

: : : : Man my baby's long, great god she's mighty, she's tall
: : : : You know my baby's long, great god she's mighty, my baby she's tall
: : : : Well my baby she's long, my baby she's tall
: : : : She sleeps with her head in the kitchen and her big feet out in the hall
: : : : And I'm still crazy 'bout her, that hardheaded woman of mine

: : : : Well I love my baby, she's so fine%

isn't the "Katy" actually the K.T.?
