For two long weeks you're goin' to Kansas City
And I'm sure to goin' to miss you while you're gone
Well this ol' time will seem to die without you
But it will sure come to life when you come home
So take care of you for me in Kansas City and honey call me every now and then
Take care of you for me in Kansas City
Cause I'll miss you till you're in my arms again

Now honey watch those Kansas City cuties
And don't let them fool you with their charms
Have a lot of fun but remember that I love you
And I'm waitin' here with my two empty arms
So take care of you
[ steel ]
Now I ain't never been to Kansas City
But I've heard stories about the guys that's gone
So if you just got to go to Kansas City
Take your time a gettin' there but hurry home
And take care of you
Yes I'll miss you till you're in my arms again
