Lyrics
I think I'm going to Katmandu
That's really, really where I'm going to
If I ever get out of here
That's what I'm gonna do
K-K-K-K-K-K-Katmandu
I think it's really where I'm going to
If I ever get out of here
I'm going to Katmandu
I got no kick against the West Coast
Warner Brothers are such good hosts
I raise my whiskey glass and give 'em a toast
I'm sure they know it's true
I got no rap against the Southern States
Every time I've been there, it's been great
But now I'm leaving and I can't be late
And to myself be true
That's why I'm going to Katmandu
Up to the mountains where I'm going to
And if I ever get out of here
That's what I'm gonna do
Oh, K-K-K-K-K-K-Katmandu
Really, really where I'm going to
If I ever get out of here
I'm goin' to Katmandu
I got no quarrel with the Midwest
The folks out there have given me their best
I lived there all my life, I've been their guest
I sure have loved it, too
I'm tired of looking at the TV news
I'm tired of driving hard and paying dues
I figure, baby, I've got nothing to lose
I'm tired of being blue
Oh, that's why I'm going to Katmandu
Up to the mountains where I'm going to
If I ever get out of here
That's what I'm gonna do
Oh, K-K-K-K-K-K-Katmandu
Take me, baby, 'cause I'm goin' with you
If I ever get out of here
I'm going to Katmandu
Take it away
I ain't got nothing against the east coast
You want some people, well, they got the most
And New York City's like a friendly ghost
You seem to pass right through
I know I'm gonna miss the USA
I guess I'll miss it every single day
But no one loves me here anyway
I know my plane is due
The one that's going to Katmandu
Up to the mountains where I'm going to
If I ever get out of here
That's what I'm gonna do
K-K-K-K-K-K-Katmandu
Really, really, really going to
If I ever get out of here
If I ever get out of here
If I ever get out of here
I'm going to Katmandu
Oh
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh-hoo-hoo
Ooh, yeah-yeah
(Katmandu, Katmandu)
(Katmandu, Katmandu)
(Katmandu, Katmandu)
(Katmandu, Katmandu)
(Katmandu, Katmandu)
(Katmandu, Katmandu)
Nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah-nah
Whoa-whoa, oh-yeah
A-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
