They're Buying IQansas 

 Lands, 



They are after land in Kansas. 



They are coming with the cash. 

 There is no use talking, neighbor, 



Kansas land has made a mash 

 On the people of this country 



And it's now in hot demand. 

 Mines of gold and seams of silver 



Hardly rank with Kansas land. 



They are after land in Kansas, 



From the East and from the West 

 Comes a steady rush of people 



Who are looking for the best ; 

 And they take a squint at Kansas, 



And as quickly as they can 

 They get action on their money— 



And it's sure a winning plan. 



For the man who wants to purchase 



Title to a Kansas place 

 Must get to the front and hustle 



Or he'll lose out in the race. 

 Every day the rates are rising, 



And the man who wants to buy 

 Should trot out his iron dollars 



Ere the prices strike the sky.
