Intro in E  
Ei wish i was a catfish, swimming in a sea
Elots of purty women just a fishin after me
then i'd moAve, i'd movEe, lord i'd mB7ove to kansas city
honey baby where they dont Ewant you
the gals will call me daddy, i'm the hippest cat around around
the women they all want me cause my good gal put me down
she done moved, she done moved, well she done moved to kansas city
honey baby where they dont want you
Solo
i walked all over memphis, looking down field
lookin for the gal that they call luceille
she done moved, she done moved, she done moved to kansas city
honey baby where they dont want you
i walked all over rockney, low as i could be,
lookin for the gal that made a sucker outta me
she done moved, she done moved, she done moved to kansas city
honey baby where they dont want you
Solo
Repeat first verse, and end in E.
