"Kansas City Blues" lyrics

Ernest Tubb And His Texas Troubadours Lyrics

"Kansas City Blues"

Lord, I wish I was a catfish swimmin' in the sea
With lots of pretty women Lord it's fish after me
And I'd move then I'd move then I'd move to Kansas City
Honey baby, where they don't want you

Now they call me pretty papa the swellest guy in town
The women are crazy bout me but my good gal turned me down
She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City
Honey baby, where they don't want you

Now I went upon Broadway looking down Beal
Looking for the gal that they call Lucille
She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City
Honey baby, where they don't want you

Now foolin' round to Nashville as blue as I can be
Looking for that blonde that made a chump out of me
She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City
Honey baby, where they don't want you
