Ernest Tubb

Kansas City Blues

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

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
