Ticket Out Of Kansas Lyrics - Singles - Regina Regina

I got my brother Frank's suitcase 

He used it once to join the army 

But they found out he had flat feet 

And stayed, gone barely two weeks 

I got my sister Pearl's best dress 

She used to wear it dancin' 

But now she's married to a preacher 

And they don't allow that kind of thing 

And I'm standing by this Greyhound 

I'm so scared that I can't stand it 

All dressed up in their hand me downs 

With this ticket out of Kansas, oh, my ticket out of Kansas 

Now aunt Louise thinks I can sing 

She thinks I've got a shot 

She gave me her first wedding ring 

She let me put in hock 

Momma swears that I'm a treasure 

That I've got diamonds in my soul 

Waiting to be discovered 

Waiting for the world to know 

And I'm climbing aboard this Greyhound 

I'm so scared that I can't stand it 

All packed up with all their hand me downs 

And this ticket out of Kansas, oh, my ticket out of Kansas 

Daddy hands me his bible 

Marked to the 'Book Of Job' 

He says Girl, you're gonna need it 

Girl, you better go 

And I'm waiting from this Greyhound 

I'm so scared that I can't stand it 

All packed up with their hand me downs 

And this ticket out of Kansas 

They are all waitin' at my Greyhound 

I'm so scared that I can't stand 

'Cuz I know so many dreams are bound 

With this ticket out of Kansas 

Oh, my ticket out of Kansas, ticket out of Kansas 

Oh, my ticket out of Kansas 

Oh my ticket
