Composer: Roger D. Linder
I can't write a song about Kansas
Without ambiguities
Wikipedia does tell me
There are quite a few of these
Kansas, it's a state
Known for their wheat and corn
Eisenhower there was born
Wild West began to form
Kansas, it's a place
Rainbow gateway to the Wiz
That's at least what Dorothy says
If you believe L. Frank, that is
Kansas, it's a band
Prog rock is their game
Dust in wind part of their fame
Some born there, they took the name
Arkansas, it's a river
Flowing right through Wichita
Do not say Ar-Kan-Saw
That just rates a big guffaw
Many more things I could quote
Asteroid and two big boats
I might have an anecdote
Or just this final note
