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 at 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 call me to come, then I do And you say you made some mistake You invite me into your house Then you say you gotta pay for what you break 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 Gypsy woman, you know every place I go Even a thousand miles away from home You don't care if I'm asleep or I'm awake This fickle heart just turn to stone 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
