Kansas City, Kansas is the third-largest city in the state of Kansas, the county seat of Wyandotte County, and the third-largest city of the Kansas City, Missouri metropolitan area. It is part of a consolidated city-county government known as the "Unified Government" which also includes the cities of Bonner Springs and Edwardsville. As of the 2010 census, the city population was 145,786. It is situated at Kaw Point, which is the junction of the Missouri and Kansas rivers. It is commonly referred to as "KCK" to differentiate it from Kansas City, Missouri (which is often referred to as "KCMO"). It is the location of the Kansas Speedway and the home field of Sporting Kansas City, the metro area's only major-league soccer team.
Kansas City, Kansas formed in 1868 and incorporated in October 1872. The first city election was held October 22, 1872, by order of Judge Hiram Stevens of the Tenth Judicial District, and resulted in the election of Mayor James Boyle. The mayors of the city after its organization have been James Boyle, C. A. Eidemiller, A. S. Orbison, Eli Teed and Samuel McConnell. John Sheehan was appointed Marshal in 1875, by Mayor Eli Teed. He was also Chief of Police, having a force of five men. In June 1880, the Governor of Kansas proclaimed the city of Kansas City a city of the second class with the Mayor Samuel McConnell present. James E. Porter was Mayor in 1910. It was one of the nation's 100 largest cities for many US Census counts, from 1890 to 1960, including 1920, when it had over 100,000 residents for the first time. In 1997, voters approved a proposition to unify the city and county governments creating the Unified Government of Wyandotte County.
Kansas City most commonly refers to:
Kansas City may also refer to:
Kansas (i/ˈkænzəs/) is a U.S. state located in the Midwestern United States. It is named after the Kansas River which flows through it, which in turn was named after the Kansa Native American tribe, which inhabited the area. The tribe's name (natively kką:ze) is often said to mean "people of the wind" or "people of the south wind," although this was probably not the term's original meaning. Residents of Kansas are called "Kansans."
For thousands of years what is now Kansas was home to numerous and diverse Native American tribes. Tribes in the Eastern part of the state generally lived in villages along the river valleys. Tribes in the Western part of the state were semi-nomadic and hunted large herds of bison. Kansas was first settled by European Americans in the 1830s, but the pace of settlement accelerated in the 1850s, in the midst of political wars over the slavery issue. When officially opened to settlement by the U.S. government in 1854, abolitionist Free-Staters from New England and pro-slavery settlers from neighboring Missouri rushed to the territory to determine if Kansas would become a free state or a slave state. Thus, the area was a hotbed of violence and chaos in its early days as these forces collided, and was known as Bleeding Kansas. The abolitionists eventually prevailed and on January 29, 1861, Kansas entered the Union as a free state. After the Civil War, the population of Kansas grew rapidly, when waves of immigrants turned the prairie into farmland. Today, Kansas is one of the most productive agricultural states, producing high yields of wheat, sorghum and sunflowers. Kansas is the 15th most extensive and the 33rd most populous of the 50 United States.

Hey hey hey hey
I miss my baby, I don't mean maybe
I miss my baby, I don't mean maybe
I miss my baby, I don't mean maybe
The river is deep and the river is wide
And the girl that I love is on the other side
She wants to move to Kansas City
Move to Kansas City
Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue
She's walking down Ellum, turning down Main
Trying to find someone to sell her cocaine
She wants to move to Kansas City
Move to Kansas City
Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue
With a dayful of promises dead on her lips
Mark 15: 34 tucked next to her hip
She wants to move to Kansas City
Move to Kansas City
Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue
Well, I jumped in the water and started to drown
I thought of her walking and turned back around
I want to move to Kansas City
Move to Kansas
I want, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue
With her pair of old wings that opened just once
She can walk on two feet now, she can go where she wants
She can even move to Kansas City
Move to Kansas City
Move, pretty baby, where the sky is so blue
And I'll tell you one thing that you should never do
Never let no woman tell you she loves you
Sure she'll call you "baby", she'll look in your eye
Then she'll get on that airplane and wave bye bye bye bye bye bye
Bye bye baby, baby bye bye
Bye Bye baby, so long next time
So long next time
And if I could believe what I want to believe
I'd hold you all close and take you with me
All of you to Kansas City

They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some.
I'm gonna pack my clothes
Leave at the break of dawn

Everybody will be sleeping
Nobody will know where I've gone
Cause if I stay in town
I know I'm gonna die.
Gotta find a friendly city
And that's the reason why,
I'm going to Kansas City
Kansas City here I come
They got a crazy way of loving there
And I'm gonna get me some.
I got to Kansas City on a Firday
By Saturday I learned a thing or two
Cuz up to then I didn't have an idy
Of whut the modern world was comin' to!
I counted twenty gas buggies goin' by their sels
Almost every time I took a walk
Then I put my ear to a bell telephone
And a strange woman started in to talk
To you?
What next?
Yeah what?
What next?
Gather round!
Everythin's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fur as they can go
They went and built a skyscraper seven stories high
About as high as a buildin' oughta grow
Everythin's like a dream in Kansas City
It's better than a magic lantren show
You can turn the radiator on
Whenever you want some heat
With every kind of comfort
Every house is all complete
You can walk to privies in the rain
And never wet your feet!
They've gone about as fur as they can go
Yes sir!
They've gone about as fur as they can go
Everythin's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fur as they can go
They've got a big theyater they call a burleeque
For fifty cents you can see a dandy show
Gals?
One of the gals was fat and pink and pretty
As round above as she was round below
I could swear that she was padded
From her shoulder to her heel
But latter in the second act
When she began to peel
She proved that everyhin' she had was absolutely real!
She went about as fur as she can go
Yes sir!

I got to Kansas City on a Frid'y
By Sattidy I larned a thing or two
For up to then I didn't have an idy
Of whut the modren world was comin' to!
I counted twenty gas buggies goin' by theirsel's
Almost ev'ry time I tuk a walk.
'Nen I put my ear to a Bell Telephone and a strange womern started in to talk!
(Whut next! Yeak whut!)
Whut next?
Ev'rythin's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
They went and built a skyscraper seven stories high,
About as high as a buildin' orta grow.
Ev'rythin's like a dream in Kansas City,
It's better than a magic lantern show!
Y' c'n turn the radiator on whenever you want some heat.
With ev'ry kind o' comfort ev'ry house is all complete.
You c'n walk to privies in the rain and never wet your feet!
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go,
(Yes sir!)
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
Ev'rythin's up to date in Kansas City
They've gone about as fur as they c'n go!
They got a big theayter they call a burlesque.
Fer fifty cents you c'n see a dandy show.
One of the gals was fat and pink and pretty,
As round above as she was round below.
I could swear that she was padded from her shoulder to her heel,
But latter in the second act when she began to peel
She proved that ev'rythin' she had was absolutely real!
She went about as fur as she could go,
(Yes sir!)
She went about as fur as she could go!

When you coming home and it’s getting late
I was unwritten fate
Two eyes light up the screen
Ooh, the prettiest face you’ve ever seen
You-ooh in the depleting light
Tip-toe through in the middle of the night
You say ‘I want what you got’ ohh
In the rocket launch to start the show
(Chorus)
Somebody in Kansas City loves me
Somebody is waiting by the telephone
Somebody in Kansas City loves me
Somebody is waiting too all alone
Hey,
Now listen
I’m a figure of eight
You can catch me and y’all wouldn’t choose
But clock is ticking 1,2,3,4,5 I’m late
Oh I, forgot to mention
He’s like that tin man with the big heart
It ‘aint easy
He loves me
And the rocket launch to start the show
(Chorus)
Somebody in Kansas City loves me
Somebody is waiting by the telephone
Somebody in Kansas City loves me
Somebody is waiting to all alone
Oh Oh, Oh Oh, Oh Oh
Oh Oh, Oh Oh, Oh Oh
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (somebody in Kansas City)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (somebody in Kansas City)
(Chorus)
Somebody in Kansas City loves me
Somebody is waiting by the telephone
Somebody in Kansas City loves me
Somebody is waiting too all alone
Alone (somebody)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (in Kansas City)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (loves me, loves me)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (somebody)
Oh Oh (in Kansas City, Kansas City)
Oh Oh (somebody)

Oh Oh (loves me, loves me)
Got a letter just this mornin'
It was postmarked Omaha
It was typed and neatly written
Offerin' me this better job
Better job at higher wages
Expenses paid and a car
But I'm on TV here locally
And I can't quit, I'm a star
I come on TV a grinnin'
Wearin' pistols and a hat
It's a kiddie show
And I'm a hero of the younger set
I'm the number one attraction
In every super market parking lot
I'm the king of Kansas City
No thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot
Kansas City Star, that's what I are
You oughta see my car
Drive a big old Cadillac with wired wheels
Got rhinestones on the spokes
I got credit down at the grocery store
And my barber tells me jokes
I'm the number one attraction
In every super market parking lot
I'm the king of Kansas City
No thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot
Kansas City Star, that's what I are
You oughta see my car
Drive a big old Cadillac with wired wheels
Got rhinestones on the spokes
I got credit down at the grocery store
And my barber tells me jokes
I'm the number one attraction
In every super market parking lot
I'm the king of Kansas City
No thanks, Omaha, thanks a lot
Stay tuned, we're gonna have
I'm going to Kansas City

Way of loving there

I got a friend in Denver, he wanted me to stay awhile
Got a friend in Denver, he wanted me to stay awhile
But I'm goin' to Kansas City countin' every mile
I've been hitchhikin' every day and night, yeah
Mostly hikin' every day and night
Just a few more miles
Old Casey will be in sight
When they lay me down
Beneath that cold cold ground
When they lay this old boy down
Beneath that cold cold ground
It'll be in Kansas City
