[Chorus]
I been rocking and reeling, Lord as long as I can be
Lord, the man that I love trying to make a fool out of me
Babe, I'm leaving, yeah I'm leaving this morning
Going to Kansas City to bring Jim Jackson home

[Verse]
Now well I used to drink and I'm going to buy a gallon
I'm going to find me my man I say, get a pair of overalls
I'm leaving, yeah I'm going to go to Kansas City, ha ha ha
Going 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 leaving, yeah I'm leaving this morning
Going to Kansas City to bring Jim Jackson home
Go ahead, take it!

[Chorus]
