He called from Kansas City
He said I
She said you had me worried
I was expecting you tonight
The silence that followed caused her heartbeat to race
so she got out a map, her hands trembling as she sat
for the next words he would say
Chorus:
Then her tears fell on Missouri
Like rain a-pourin
he just called and told her
about a new love he
the children lay a-sleepin
they don
and her tears fell on Missouri
from their little Georgia home
She said what about our babies
Don
the doctor gave
and your tears of joy fell on their face
you should
and what am I gonna say to our angels when they wake
and ask why dad
Chorus
