Bm A Em
Kansas City, I hold back my tears
Bm A Em
I know that I should have been thrilled
Bm A Em
I can't smile, knowing all the while
Bm A Em
Everything you did, you did for you
Woohoo
Kansas City, you ask me how I've been
I lie and then say that I've been fine
Words that trailed off, thats as far as we got
I know that I should have been thrilled
Woohoo
Kansas City, I am not her son
I belong to my mother who's now gone
Always left to leave that's why he has returned
I know that I should have been thrilled
Woohoo
Kansas City, thanks for your concern
I will learn to get back on my own
Orphaned by my stake, call him by his name
I know someday I will return
I know someday I will return
I know someday I will return
I know someday I will return
I know someday I will return
I know someday I will return
