Ticket Out Of Kansas Lyrics

I got my brother Frank's suitcase

He used it once to join the army

But they found out he had flat feet

And stayed, gone barely two weeks

I got my sister Pearl's best dress

She used to wear it dancin'

But now she's married to a preacher

And they don't allow that kind of thing

And I'm standing by this Greyhound

I'm so scared that I can't stand it

All dressed up in their hand me downs

With this ticket out of Kansas, oh, my ticket out of Kansas

Now aunt Louise thinks I can sing

She thinks I've got a shot

She gave me her first wedding ring

She let me put in hock

Momma swears that I'm a treasure

That I've got diamonds in my soul

Waiting to be discovered

Waiting for the world to knowRegina Regina - Ticket Out Of Kansas - http://motolyrics.com/regina-regina/ticket-out-of-kansas-lyrics.html

And I'm climbing aboard this Greyhound

I'm so scared that I can't stand it

All packed up with all their hand me downs

And this ticket out of Kansas, oh, my ticket out of Kansas

Daddy hands me his bible

Marked to the 'Book Of Job'

He says ?Girl, you're gonna need it?

Girl, you better go

And I'm waiting from this Greyhound

I'm so scared that I can't stand it

All packed up with their hand me downs

And this ticket out of Kansas

They are all waitin' at my Greyhound

I'm so scared that I can't stand

'Cuz I know so many dreams are bound

With this ticket out of Kansas

Oh, my ticket out of Kansas, ticket out of Kansas

Oh, my ticket out of Kansas

Oh my ticket
