[Verse 1]
Farmer, I'm just a farmer
That never was quite good enough for you
Dreamer, you were a dreamer
But I've been known to dream a little too

[Chorus]
About when the oceans touch Missouri
The Mississippi is the sea
Ships are anchored on the Kansas City Line
And you're sailing home to me

[Verse 2]
Sailor, he was a sailor
He told you 'bout the things you'd never seen
Baby, he took my baby
Now the only time I see you is when I dream

[Chorus]
About when the oceans touch Missouri
The Mississippi is the sea
Ships are anchored on the Kansas City Line
And you're sailing home to me
About when the oceans touch Missouri
The Mississippi is the sea
Ships are anchored on the Kansas City Line
And you're sailing home to me
