Is there anybody who knows the lyrics of the song "Kansas city Blues" recorded for the first time by Jim Jackson (?)in the tweenties. I think I heard it play to Mr.Dave Van Ronk.

here are the lyrics  hope they help

Lord I wish I was a catfish swimmin' in the sea
With lots of pretty women Lord it's fish after me
And I'd move then I'd move then I'd move to Kansas City
Honey baby where they don't want you
Now they call me pretty papa the swallest guy in town
The women are crazy bout me but my good gal turned me down
She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City
Honey baby where they don't want you
[ guitar]
Now I walk upon the broadway looking down the peel
Looking for the gal that they call Lucille
She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City
Honey baby where they don't want you
Now foolin' round to Nashville as blue as I can be
Looking for the blonde that made a champ out of me
She done move she done move she done move to Kansas City
Honey baby where they don't want you
