Folks don't stay up very late
Way Out West in Kansas
They roll the sidewalks up at eight
Way Out West In Kansas
The town's so small that I declare, you can stand in the old town square,
And knock on every front door there
Way Out West in Kansas
Way Out West in Kansas
The sun's so hot that eggs will hatch
Way Out West In Kansas
It popped all the corn in the popcorn patch
Way Out West in Kansas
An old mule coming down the path, saw the corn and lost his breath
He thought it was snow and froze to d**h
Way Out West in Kansas
Way Out West in Kansas
I knew a man named cross-eyed Pat
Way Out West in Kansas
You can't tell who he's looking at
Way out west in Kansas
He cries because he's such a wreck, and the tears roll down the back of his neck
And he don't look right to me, by heck
Way Out west in Kansas
Way Out west in Kansas
I knew a man that gre so tall
Way Out West in Kansas
That if that man should ever fall, he'd be out of Kansas
The town's so small, that I repeat, he's as long as our main street
With the lots turned up for feet.
Way Out West in Kansas
