Kansas City Lyrics


There's a light that fades, from a young man
When you're old and gray
Well ya can't find the time of day
Ain't no one to meet
Seekin' shelter from dead end streets
In a hotel room, in Kansas City
From the sunflower state, a fool came callin'
Sat down at the bar
Where the uptown ramblers meet
Half a mile away
You can still hear them guitars ring
They were ringin' for you, in Kansas City
Instrumental Break
I could sit here for days, waiting for answers
Or I could hop a train

What the hell have I got to loose
A million things on my mind
Just a hobo passin' time
I was thinkin' about you, in Kansas City
For a time I lived, in a day's dream
When I last awoke I was in someone else's mind
Seven hours in a car
45 minutes singin' in a bar
I was thinkin' about you, in Kansas City
There's a light that fades, from a young man
When you're old and gray
Well ya can't find the time of day
Ain't no one to meet
Seekin' shelter from a dead end street
In a hotel room, in Kansas City
Ina hotel room, in Kansas City

Otis Gibbs is a man in search of an honest experience. Some people refer to him as a folk artist, but that is a simplistic way to describe a man who has planted over 7,000 trees, slept in hobo jungles, walked with nomadic shepherds in the Carpathian Mountains, been strip-searched by dirty cops in Detroit, and has an FBI file. Otis has played everywhere from labor rallies in Wisconsin, to anti-war protests in Texas, Austria and the Czech Republic, Feed & Seed Stores in the Midwestern U.S. and in countless, theaters, festivals, bars and living rooms.
