kansas city star - Song Lyrics

Kansas City Star

Artist: Roger Miller (peak Billboard position # 31 in 1965)
Words and Music by Roger Miller

Got a letter just this mornin� it was postmarked Omaha
It was typed and neatly written offerin� me this better job
Better job at higher wages, expenses paid and a car
But I�m on TV here locally and I can�t quit, I�m a star

Hah-ha I come on TV grinnin,� wearin� pistols and a hat
It�s a kiddy show and I�m a hero of the younger set
I�m the number one attraction every supermarket parkin� lot
I�m the king of Kansas City, no thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot

CHORUS:
Kansas City star, that�s what I are
Yodel-deedle ay-hee, you oughta see my car
I drive a big old Cadillac with wire wheels, got rhinestones on the spokes
I got credit down at the grocery store
And my barber tells me jokes
I�m the number one attraction every supermarket parkin� lot
I�m the king of Kansas City, no thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot

<brief instrumental interlude>

<nearly irreplicable scat>

CHORUS

SPOKEN: Stay tuned, gonna have a Popeye cartoon in a minute
