Verse:
Chi -ca -go Char -lie was a good time Ro -me -o,
He'd love a gal, then whis -per, "good -bye, cheer -i -o."
Just like Na -po -leon, Love got Char -lie, too,
Here's how Chi -ca -go Char -lie said he met his Wat -er -loo.
 
Chorus:
I left Fris -co Kate, Swing -in' on the Gold -en Gate,
When Kan -sas Ci -ty Kit -ty smiled at me!
I left Ma and Pa, out in O -ma -ha -ha ha,
When Kan -sas Ci -ty Kit -ty smiled at me!
She comes from Miss -ou -ri and she showed me,
Like a Tex -as steer she buf -fa -loed me;
Ev -ry' Jim and Jack Got the well known Hack -en -sack,
When Kan -sas Ci -ty Kit -ty smiled at me!
