You're Not In Kansas Anymore
Written by - Zack Turner & Tim Nichols
From - Jo Dee Messina
He said, 'I grew up in Wichita
In a Mayberry kind of town'
He never liked overalls
Or haulin' hay 'til sundown
He said he dreamed about LA
As he plowed away the day on an old John Deere
I said, 'Boy, let me warn you
In southern California
There's some fast trains here'

You're not in Kansas anymore
Can't be too careful
That's for sure
City lights will led you on
Morning comes and they'll be gone
So write my number on your wall
And call me anytime at all
I'm so happy now, boy
You're not in Kansas anymore

He said, 'Do you know where Carson lives?'
So we drove up to Malibu
Cruisin' down Sunset Strip
Oh, I let him steal a kiss or two
Under the Hollywood sign
I tried to hide a smile as I whispered low
'I wanna be the first to tell you
Here we say Rodeo, not rodeo'

You're not in Kansas anymore
Can't be too careful
That's for sure
City lights will led you on
Morning comes and they'll be gone
So write my number on your wall
And call me anytime at all
I'm so happy now, boy
You're not in Kansas anymore

I'm so happy now, boy
You're not in Kansas anymore
