Buck Owens And The Buckaroos - The Kansas City Song Lyrics

 

For two long weeks you're goin' to Kansas City

And I'm a sure I'm gonna miss you while you're gone

This ol' town will seem to die without you

But it sure will come to life when you come home.

 

So take care of you for me in Kansas City 

And honey, call me every now and then

Take care of you for me in Kansas City 

'Cause I'll miss you till you're in my arms, again.

 

Now honey, watch those Kansas City Romeos

And don't let them fool you with their charms

Have a lot of fun but remember that I love you

And I'm a waiting here with my two open arms.

 

So take care of you for me in Kansas City 

And honey, call me every now and then

Take care of you for me in Kansas City 

'Cause I'll miss you till you're in my arms, again.

 

Now, I ain't never been to Kansas City

But I've heard stories about the girls that's gone

So if you just gotta go to Kansas City 

Take your time a gettin' there but hurry home

 

And so take care of you for me in Kansas City 

And honey, call me every now and then

Take care of you for me in Kansas City 

'Cause I'll miss you till you're in my arms, again.

 

Yes, I'll miss you till you're in my arms, again...
