I think I`m going to Katmandu,
That`s really, really where I`m going to.
If i ever get out of here,
That`s what I`m gonna do.
K-k-k-k-k-Katmandu,
I think that`s where I`m going to.
If i ever get out of here,
I`m going to Katmandu.
I got no kick against the west coast
Warner brothers are such good hosts.
I raise my whiskey glass and give them a toast,
I`m sure they know it`s true.
I got no rap against the southern states.
Every time I`ve been there it`s been great.
But now I`m leaving and i can`t be late
And to myself be true.
That`s why I`m going to Katmandu,
Up to the mountains where I`m going to,
And if I ever get out of here that`s what I`m gonna do.
K - k - k - k - k - Katmandu,
That`s really, really where I`m going to,
Oh, if I ever get out of here I`m going to Katmandu.
I got no quarrel with the Midwest,
The folks out there have given me their best.
I lived there all my life, I`ve been their guest,
I sure have loved it, too.
I`m tired of looking at the TV. news.
I`m tired of driving hard and paying dues.
I figure, baby, I`ve got nothing to lose,
I`m tired of being blue.
That`s why I`m going to Katmandu,
Up to the mountains where I`m going to.
If i ever get out of here that`s what I`m gonna do.
K - k - k - k - k - Katmandu,
Take me, baby, `cause I`m going with you.
If I ever get out of here I`m going to Katmandu.
I ain`t got nothing `gainst the east coast.
You want some people where they got the most.
And New York city`s like a friendly ghost,
You seem to pass right through.
I know I`m gonna miss the u.s.a.,
I guess i`ll miss it every single day,
But no one loves me here anyway,
I know my playing is through.
That`s why I`m going to Katmandu,
Up to the mountains where I`m going to.
If i ever get out of here,
That`s what I`m gonna do.
K-k-k-k-k-Katmandu,
Really, really going to,
If i ever get out of here,
If i ever get out of here,
If i ever get out of here,
I`m going to Katmandu.
