Текст песни Kansas City

Kansas City, I fought back the tears
I know that I should have been thrilled
I can't smile knowing all the while
Everything you did, you did for you

Kansas City, he asked me how I've been
I lie and then said that I've been fine
Words that trailed off and that's as far as we got
I know I should have been thrilled

Kansas City, I am not his son
I belong to my mother who's now gone
All was left to me and that's why he has returned
I know I should have been thrilled

Kansas City, thanks for your concern
I will learn to get by on my own
Orphaned by my state, call him by his name
I know some day I will return
I know some day I will return
I know some day I will return
I know some day I will return
I know some day I will return
I know some day I will return
