Okkervil River - Kansas City lyrics

[Verse 1] The river is deep and the river is wide And the girl that I love is on the other side She wants to move to Kansas City Move to Kansas City Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue [Verse 2] She is walking down Ellum, turning down Main Trying to find someone to sell her c**aine She wants to move to Kansas City Move to Kansas City Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue [Verse 3] With a day full of promises dead on her lips Mark 15:34 tucked next to her hip She wants to move to Kansas City Move to Kansas City Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue [Verse 4] Well, I jumped in the water and started to drown I thought of her walking and turned back around I want to move to Kansas City Move to Kansas I want, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue [Verse 5] With her pair of old wings that opened just once She can walk on two feet now, she can go where she wants She can even move to Kansas City Move to Kansas City Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue [Verse 6] And I will tell you one thing that you should never do Never let no woman tell you she loves you Sure she will call you "baby", she will look in your eye Then she will get on that airplane and wave bye bye bye bye bye bye Bye bye baby, baby bye bye Bye Bye baby, so long next time So long next time [Verse 7] And if I could believe what I want to believe I would hold you all close and take you with me All of you to Kansas City You to Kansas City And me, yeah, where the sky is so blue
