Kansas City |
| The river is deep and the river is wide |
| And the girl that I love is on the other side |
| She wants to move to Kansas City |
| Move to Kansas City |
| Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue |
| She’s walking down Ellum, turning down Main |
| Trying to find someone to sell her cocaine |
| She wants to move to Kansas City |
| Move to Kansas City |
| Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue |
| With a dayful of promises dead on her lips |
| Mark 15:34 tucked next to her hip |
| She wants to move to Kansas City |
| Move to Kansas City |
| Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue |
| Well, I jumped in the water and started to drown |
| I thought of her walking and turned back around |
| I want to move to Kansas City |
| Move to Kansas |
| I want, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue |
| With her pair of old wings that opened just once |
| She can walk on two feet now, she can go where she wants |
| She can even move to Kansas City |
| Move to Kansas City |
| Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue |
| And I’ll tell you one thing that you should never do |
| Never let no woman tell you she loves you |
| Sure she’ll call you «baby», she’ll look in your eye |
| Then she’ll get on that airplane and wave bye bye bye bye bye bye |
| Bye bye baby, baby bye bye |
| Bye Bye baby, so long next time |
| So long next time |
| And if I could believe what I want to believe |
| I’d hold you all close and take you with me |
| All of you to Kansas City |
| You to Kansas City |
| And me, yeah, where the sky is so blue |
