Kansas City

[Verse 1]

I've got my old man's Delta 88

The windows cracked

I'm on the Interstate

Just a hundred miles to go on half a tank of gasoline

Lucky charms and Tic Tacs

And Mom's amphetamines

[Chorus]

A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

February makes me kinda crazy

A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

Will you still be callin' me your baby?

[Verse 2]

I met a man in a diner outside of Hays

He said marriage brought him there

It was divorce that made him stay

I drove straight through to Junction City

I thought I'd call you in Topeka

But I didn't want the pity

[Chorus]

A hundred miles to go to Kansas City

Yeah, February makes me kinda crazy

Yeah, a hundred miles to go to Kansas City

Will you still be callin' me your baby?

[Bridge]

Feels like I been thrown into the slammer

With the back end of a hammer

Drawn over my strings

Oh, living became needing

My crying became bleeding

And now I am only dreaming

[Harmonica Solo]

[Chorus]

Oh, a hundred miles to go to Kansas City

February makes me kinda crazy

Oh, a hundred miles to go to Kansas City

Will you still be callin' me your baby?

Oh, will you still be callin' me?
