12 • KANSAS CITY FOR A DAY

Kansas City for a day
and they all came to play
in hotel rooms

They’re waitin' on a crack whore
who was at the last show
She wore her tutu to Tupelo
and crashed out on the floor
with her rug burns
They all took turns

She was once a guitar princess
They say she really rocked
Now she’s just a sad mess
Now she’s trapped in a big box
out where the doomed flock to,
if the rumors are true

She just slips and slides
She makes for a good ride
She ain’t got no pride
and she takes it all in stride
She just slips and slides

They muscled into Memphis
Time to throw down some twang
He got all down home Jesus
on the girl that they all banged
Filled her head with visions
She had trouble with decisions

Kansas City for a day
and no one came to play
in hotel rooms
Lives his days in a haze
that is filled with regret
His dreams are fevered
and they all end up wet
He looks at her and weeps
She’s an angel when she sleeps

He’s waitin’ on a crack whore
who’ll never come through
She doesn’t want to be seen,
She’s not sure what to do
She doesn’t want to be found
Not since losing her crown

He just slips and slides
She made for a good ride
He ain’t got no pride
Is this Heaven?
Has he died?

There was a time, they say,
that she was kind of cute
but there was too much to smoke
and too much to shoot
She felt good for a while
‘til she forgot how to smile

I’m waitin’ on a crack whore
I’ve got better things to do
There were rumors and stories
No one knows what’s really true
Was she a guitar princess?
Did she fall for the old
“God bless”?

They just slip and slide… They just slip and slide
