Kansas City

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
