Kansas City Lyrics By Hank Ballard And The Midnighters

    i’m going to kansas city
    kansas city here i come
    i’m going to kansas city
    kansas city here i come
    they got a crazy
    way of loving there
    i’m gonna get me some
    i’m gonna be
    standing on the corner
    on the corner of
    twelfth street and vine
    i’ll be standing on the corner
    on the corner of
    twelfth street and vine
    with my kansas city baby
    the one i call miss kc fine
    well i might take a train
    i might take a plane
    but if i have to walk
    i’m going there just the same
    i’m going to kansas city
    kansas city here i come
    they got a crazy
    way of loving there
    and i’m gonna get me some
    i’m gonna pack my clothes
    leave at the break of dawn
    i’m gonna pack my clothes
    leave at the break of dawn
    well everybody in cleveland
    nobody will know where i’ve gone
    cause if i stay in this town
    i know i’m gonna die
    gotta find a pretty city
    and that’s the reason why
    i’m going to kansas city
    kansas city here i come
    they have a crazy
    way of loving there
    i’m gonna get me some
