1927 Kansas City |
He bought her a flower at the fair |
1927 Kansas City |
Said he liked the color of her hair |
Then he walked her home and told her she was pretty |
Then they spent a little while |
Letting their hearts learn to smile |
Doing things that lovers always do |
He said «How many kids?» |
She said «A few» |
And it’s 1927 Kansas CIty |
Folks were drivin' round in their stutz bearcats |
With straw hats, parasols, the fashion of the day |
Summer nights with ukulele strumming |
They were humming to the tune of moonlight bay |
Batchtub gin and movie stars |
Two more payments and the baby’s ours |
It’s the little things that make this live so sweet |
When your only worries were your two sore feet |
From dancin' in the street in Kansas City |
So fine the little ol' couple in love |
Space in time the little ol' couple in love |
Nowadays there’s silver in her hair |
The kids have come and gone like seasons turning |
Forty years since they met at the fair |
But he still brings her flowers in the morning |
Knowing when the shadows fall |
Life’s a circle after all |
Reminding her their love can never end |
Suddenly she’s just a girl again |
And it’s 1927 Kansas City |
