Kansas City Blues — текст песни (Janis Joplin)

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
