Kansas City Songtext
von The New Basement Tapes

I listen to you time and time again
While you tell me just what′s right
And you tell me a thousand things a day
Then sleep somewhere's else in the night
I′m going back to Kansas City

And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
I'm going back to Kansas City

And you called me to come, then I do
Then you say you've made some mistake
You invite me into your house
Then you say gotta to pay for what you break
Going back to Kansas City


And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
I′m going back to Kansas City

Gypsy woman, you know every place I go
Even a thousand miles away from home
And you don′t care if I'm asleep or I′m awake
This fickle heart just turned to stone
Going back to Kansas City

And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
I'm going back to Kansas City

And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
And I love you dear, but just how long
Can I keep singing the same old song
I′m going back to Kansas City
