Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come
I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come

They got some crazy
way of lovin there
And I'm gonna get me one.
I'm gonna be
Standing on the corner

Twelfth Street and Vine
I'll be standing on the corner
Twelfth Street and Vine
With my Kansas City baby
And a bottle of Kansas City wine

Well, I might take a train
I might take a plane

But if I have to walk
I'm going just the same
I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come

They got some crazy
Little women there
And I'm gonna get me one

Well, I might take a train
I might take a plane

But if I have to walk
I'm going just the same
I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City, here I come

They got some crazy
Little women there
And I'm gonna get me one

They got some crazy
Little women there
And I'm gonna get me one

They got some crazy




Little women there
And I'm gonna get me one.

My heart just dropped to my stomach. I’m 64, when did we get old. I haven’t seen Bruce Springsteen in years, he looks a little fragile. Our minds tell us we are still 21 but our bodies say different.

@chriscianciolo5823

Look at him go up the steps after falling, look at him put the guitar back on. He doesn’t move or act like he’s almost 75. Fragile?

@amomwathi7110

He has plenty of friends to help him up. I fell 3 days ago and I'm still laying here.
