There's a place where the birds sing bass Rab -bits laugh in a bull -dog's face

Trains don't stop at my home town 'Cause wood -peck -ers knocked the de -pot down

There the girls grow tall and slim, The boys grow whisk -ers on their chin,

Their ears grow out and their toes turn in, Out in that West -ern town.

Folks don't stay out ve -ry late 'Way out West in Kan -sas,

They take the side -walks in at eight 'Way out West in Kan -sas

It's some town by heck I'll swear, You can stand in the old town square

And knock on ev -'ry front door there 'Way out West in Kan -sas.
