Kansas City Blues Lyrics - Ernest Tubb

Lord I wish I was a catfish swimmin' in the sea 

With lots of pretty women Lord it's fish after me 

And I'd move then I'd move then I'd move to Kansas City 

Honey baby where they don't want you 

Now they call me pretty papa the smallest guy in town 

The women are crazy bout me but my good gal turned me down 

She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City 

Honey baby where they don't want you 

[ guitar ] 

Now I walk upon the broadway looking down the peel 

Looking for the gal that they call Lucille 

She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City 

Honey baby where they don't want you 

Now foolin' round to Nashville as blue as I can be 

Looking for the blond that made a champ out of me 

She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City 

Honey baby where they don't want you
