KITTY FROM KANSAS CITY
Her name was Kitty from Kansas City
Sure was a pity she wasn't pretty
She's not so hard to see
She weighs two-forty-three
I hope she doesn't get much fatter
But if she does, that doesn't matter
Kitty from Kansas City
Now there's a girl that I adore
She's so dumb, she doesn't know a thing
Why, she thinks that July the Fourth is an English King
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me
Well, she's so dumb, her brain is in a whirl
Why, she thinks that Babe Ruth, is a chorus girl
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well she's so dumb, she really is a dear
Why she thinks that "Eli, Eli" is a college cheer
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Her name was Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty from Kansas City
Sure was a pity she wasn't pretty
Hey, Hey I love her just because
She's not the girl she was
She can cook, and she can wash
But when she makes her love, Oh, Gosh!
It's Kitty from Kansas City
Now there's a girl that I adore
She's so dumb, some times I almost cry
Why, she thinks that Sing Sing is a lullaby
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well, she's so dumb, it really is a shame,
Why she thinks that Muscle Shoals is a boxer's name,
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see,
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well, she's so dumb, sometimes it almost kills,
Why she thought Rudy Vallee was a place between two hills!
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well she's so dumb, she gives me an awful cramp,
Why she thinks that an Israelite is an electric lamp,
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Her name was Kitty from Kansas City
Sure was a pity she wasn't pretty
She's not so hard to see
She weighs two-forty-three
I hope she doesn't get much fatter
But if she does, that doesn't matter
Kitty from Kansas City
Now there's a girl that I adore
She's so dumb, she doesn't know a thing
Why, she thinks that July the Fourth is an English King
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me
Well, she's so dumb, her brain is in a whirl
Why, she thinks that Babe Ruth, is a chorus girl
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well she's so dumb, she really is a dear
Why she thinks that "Eli, Eli" is a college cheer
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Her name was Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty, Kitty from Kansas City
Sure was a pity she wasn't pretty
Hey, Hey I love her just because
She's not the girl she was
She can cook, and she can wash
But when she makes her love, Oh, Gosh!
It's Kitty from Kansas City
Now there's a girl that I adore
She's so dumb, some times I almost cry
Why, she thinks that Sing Sing is a lullaby
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well, she's so dumb, it really is a shame,
Why she thinks that Muscle Shoals is a boxer's name,
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see,
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well, she's so dumb, sometimes it almost kills,
Why she thought Rudy Vallee was a place between two hills!
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
Well she's so dumb, she gives me an awful cramp,
Why she thinks that an Israelite is an electric lamp,
I love her, I love her, that's easy to see
It's Kansas City Kitty for me!
