A Prairie Home Companion with Garrison Keillor

I'm in Kansas lyrics

Savannah, Santa Fe, Montana
Laurel Canyon, Susquehanna
San Francisco or Manhattan
Eat your heart out, I'm in Kansas.

I'm in Kansas,
Handsome Kansas
In the land of long romances
Fertile plants and cash finances
Eat your heart out, I'm in Kansas.

Rembrandt, Cezanne, could've painted Kansas
The landscape's like the south of France
Chopin would have written dances
Had he hung his pants in Kansas

All my aunts, including Francis,
Prayed that the Lord if He grants us
Just one wish, is there a chance
He could transplant us here in Kansas
