I been rockin' and reelin',
Lord as long as I can be
Lord, the man that I love tryin'
To make a fool out of me.
Babe, I'm leavin',
Yeah!!! I'm a leavin' this mornin'
Goin' to Kansas City
To bring Jim Jackson home.

Now!!! well I used to drink
And I'm gonna buy a gallon
I'm gonna find me my man I say,
Get a pair of overalls.
I'm leavin',
Yeah!!! I'm gonna go to Kansas City,
Ha!!! ha!!! ha!!!
Goin' to Kansas City,
Yeah!!! to make my man my own.

I'll walk on Beauty Street
With an idea I might stay,
If she wants my man
I'll just change my ways.
Lord I'm leavin',
Yeah!!! I'm leavin' this mornin'
Goin' to Kansas City
To bring Jim Jackson home.
Go ahead, take it!!!
Yeah!!!

I been rockin' and reelin',
Lonesome as I can be
Lord the man that I love
Sure made a fool out of me.
Babe I'm leavin',
Yeah!!! I'm leavin' this mornin'
Goin' to Kansas City
Tryin' to find a man of my own,
Yeah!!!
