All across Kansas, all across Kansas
In the night-
We'll reach Missouri in the dawn's
Early light
My sister and I in the back seat don't
Care how far we got to go
We want to keep rolling, listening to
That late night radio

Mama took the suitcases and blankets
Made us a little nest
Every time we peek up she says
"You kids try to get a little rest."
We can hear her and daddy singing
Warm as the dashlight glow
In the back seat, rain for the drumbeat
Listening to that late night radio

We're almost sleeping
Tucking in our legs and arms
We're almost dreaming
Looking through the rain at the little lights of the farms
If we get stuck in the mud
My daddy he will carry us I know
The music's coming all the way from
Texas on the late night radio
Now my own children
Are back in that nest where I used to be
Every time they peek up, I say
"You kids now try to get a little sleep,"
And the older girl says
"Daddy I wish we could drive all night
Just go and go-
Oh I love it when it's raining
Can we listen to the radio?
Listen to that late night radio
Can we drive all night
And Daddy listen to
Can we drive all night now Daddy and listen to that
Late night radio?
In the back seat, rain for the drum beat
Listen to that late night radio?
In the back seat, rain for the drum beat
Listen to that late night radio
Coming all the way from Texas
Oh that late night radio
In the back seat, rain for the drum beat
Listen to that late night radio
Oh I love it, I love it , I love it
Love it when it's raining
Can we go and go and go and go and go and go and go and ....
Listen to that late night radio
Can we go and go and go and go and go and?"
