Six Months In Kansas City (Liberty Street)

I see by the papers that

he came from the old religion

but possessed no magic skill

decontrolling from machinery

he left nothing in his will

Thank you for not helping me out

For not treating me like a fool

if he didn't lay me

on a cold mattress at night

I might be kicking more then your muse

crops are failing

Women are wailing

6 months in Kansas City (woe! can't find no room and bread)

6 months in Kansas City (what kind of reward)

6 months in Kansas City (all my good friends in jail lost out)

6 months in Kansas City(some who ain't got me trade just out)

6 months in Kansas City (but they all try to make you come back)

6 months in Kansas City (down on my knees, not even a breeze, ain't it a pity)

6 months in Kansas City

Now loots have Baby Snooks

Don't matter how many looks

you got underneath your thumb

decontrolling from machinery

he left nothing in his will

Thank you for not helping me out

For not treating me like a fool

if he didn't lay me

on a cold mattress at night

I might be kicking more then your muse

crops are failing

Women are wailing

6 months in Kansas City (Woe! can't be begging for no last meal)
