Standard (EADGBE)

 I'm goin' to Kansas City

Kansas City, here I come

 I'm goin' to Kansas City

 Kansas City, here I come

 They've got crazy women there and

 'm goin' down to get me some

 Well, I might take a train, I might take a plane

But if I have to walk, I'm goin' just the same

 I'm goin' to Kansas City

Kansas City, here I come

 I'm goin' to Kansas City

 Kansas City, here I come

 They've got crazy women there and

 'm goin' down to get me some

Well bye, bye bye baby bye

Wooo so long, bye bye baby I'm gone

Well bye, bye bye baby bye

(instrumental; same pattern as verses)

I'm a holl'rin' and screamin'

Baby please come home

Well, I'm a holl'rin' and screamin'

Don't you leave me all alone

Well, I'm a holl'rin' and I'm screamin'

Baby please come home

(repeat verse 2)

Hey hey hey hey

I miss my baby, I don't mean maybe

I miss my baby, I don't mean maybe

I miss my baby, I don't mean maybe

I'll miss my baby until the day I die
