It’s a blindfold kick back type of a game
called the Kansas City Shuffle
When you look left, they fall right
into the Kansas City Shuffle
It’s a «they think-you think you don’t know»
type of Kansas City Hustle
Where you take your time
Wait your turn and hang them up
out to dry

I look left not right
I look left not right
I look left not right

It’s a shake down, switch, arrive in town
type of Kansas City Shuffle
gotta play both sides and let it ride
on the Kansas City Shuffle
Now the tables turned, the lesson’s learned
you gotta earn yourself some trouble
revenge like this, never sweet
you got yourself a long ride out

I look left not right
I look left not right
I look left not right
