Lyrics

Come with me if you wanna go to Kansas City
I'm feeling low down and blue
My heart's full of sorrow
Don't hardly know what to do
Where will I be tomorrow?
Going to Kansas City, wanna go too?
No, you can't make it with me
Going to Kansas City
Sorry that I can't take you
When you see me coming, raise your window high
When you see me leaving, baby, hang your head and cry
I'm afraid there's nothing in this creamy, dreamy town
A honky-tonky, monkey woman can do
She'd only bring herself down
So long, everybody
The time has come and I must leave you
So if I don't ever see your smiling face again
Make a promise you'll remember
Like a Christmas day in December
That I told you all through thick and thin
On up until the end
Parker's been your friend
Don't hang your head when you see
When you see those six pretty horses pulling me
Put a twenty dollar silver piece on my watch chain
Look at the smile on my face
And sing a little song to let the world know I'm really free
Don't cry for me 'cause I'm going to Kansas City
Come with me if you wanna go to Kansas City
