Once upon a time On the road and all in rags, I met this pretty guy With the guitar on his back. When the sun came down, He asked me for a break - Out of Kansas City, At a minikin lake. He was playing just for me Famous Country-songs, Sitting by the fire I listened all night long. Soon as the dawn came up, I kissed him good-bye. I never saw this guy again - Still I don't know, why. Eeeyy - ooohh, Kansas-Joe, Why did I ever let you go.!? Eeeyy - ooohh, Kansas-Joe, Tell me, I don't know! Eeeyy - ooohh, Kansas-Joe, You said 'yes'. But I said 'no'. Eeeyy - ooohh, Kansas-Joe, I still love you so! So everyhow I was, Too blind to see, This romantic Cowboy Was just made for me. Well, I had my chance Blew it right away. I hate myself for losing him Every single day. Eeeyy - ooohh, Kansas -Joe, Why did I ever let you go... He was right, I was wrong – That's the reason why I wanna tell him in this song Sorry I was too shy Eeeyy - ooohh, Kansas -Joe, Why did I ever let you go...
