Kansas

Out in the Kansas foothills

We all lived off the land

Made twenty five cents a week

Just doin the best that we can

My brothers would yell 'keep the gate up!'

The coyote roundups tonight

Back then I didn't know

I'd always be saying goodbye

Oh and I was better once

Oh man did we have fun

Said a lot of hellos

Nobody knows how much I've cried

Oh it's so damn hard saying goodbye

People still ask why I'm ridin

Into the sunset at night

Why take a car when I got this horse

Yippee ki yay through the night

Oh and I was better once

Oh man did we have fun

Said a lot of hellos

Nobody knows how much I've cried

Oh it's so damn hard saying goodbye

Yippeee ki yay

Yippee ki yo

Yipeee ki yay

Ooo

Oh and I was better once

Oh man did we have fun

Said a lot of hellos

Nobody knows how much I've cried

Oh it's so damn hard saying goodbye

So let's raise a glass

Make a toast

Tip our hats

To the cowboys last

Good.... Bye

Ooo
