Written by Jerry Leiber and Mike Stoller in 1952 here it is sung by Wilbert Harrison in 1959

Goin’ to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come
Goin’ to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come
They got some crazy little women there
And I’m gonna get me one

Gonna be standin’ on the corner
Twelfth Street and Vine
Gonna be standin’ on the corner
Twelfth Street and Vine
With my Kansas City baby
And a bottle of Kansas City wine

Well, I might take the train
I might take a plane
But if I have to walk
I’m goin’ just the same

Goin’ to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come
They got some crazy little women there
And I’m gonna get me one

Ah, but you know
Yeah, must die

Ah, yeah
Now, if I stay with that woman
I know I’m gonna die
Gotta find a brand new baby
That’s the reason why

Goin’ to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come
They got some crazy little women there
And I’m gonna get me one
They got some crazy little women there
And I’m gonna get me one
They got some crazy little women there
And I’m gonna get me one
