Chicago chicago that toddlin' town
Chicago chicago i'll show you around
Bet your bottom dollar you'll lose the blues in chicago
Chicago the town that *mart faye* could not shut down

On state street that great street
I just want to say
They do things that they don't do on broadway say

They have the time the time of their life
I saw a man he danced with his wife
In chicago my home town

They have the time the time of their life
I saw a man he danced with his wife
In chicago
In chicago
In chicago

Transcriber's note: original lyrics indicate that *billy sunday * the
Evangelist could not close chicago down-after all it was capone's town!!. marty
Faye was a chicago radio dj and tv talk show host from the 40/50/60s. he was
Known for his abrasive style and voice. if you ever heard him you wouldn't be likely
To forget him though you might try to very hard.
