Way Out West
Shulman Smith
Way out west with my honey
I got all these bags
Filled up with money and I'm
Weighed down look at me honey
I got all my baggage packed
My mind went out the door
When she done let me in
We came from the same town
Now I wanna go home
Way out west with my honey
I got all these bags
Filled up with money and I'm
Weighed down look at me honey
I got all my baggage packed
In Kansas '58
They made a brand new state
They went way down weighed down
To get what's gleaming underground
And then the fighting came in time
Then the flooding and the fire
But it's changed now made out
They drove a spike into the ground
Way out west with my honey
I got all these bags
Filled up with money and I'm
Weighed down look at me honey
I got all my baggage packed
Her mind went out the door
To leave her next of kin
She escaped now westbound
She don't wanna go home
And now I wanna go home
Now I wanna go home
But she don't wanna go home
