Goin' to Chicago

歌詞

You keep your New York Joys I'm bound for Illinois Just as fast as I can You New York women think You'll make a fool of any man Play all kinds of games And you'll cheat if you can Treat them like a tool Make a man a fool What a beautiful motto Got my money, that's it How can you mind if I split Going back where a woman knows the way to treat a man And people are friendly Without no hidden plan It's the best in the midwest It's a real darn city full of Good folks who come from home And when I get back I'll never roam far From my Chitown Goodbye, farewell I might see you later Going to Chicago So sorry that I can't take you I come from Chitown Chitown is my town Going to Chicago Sorry that I can't take you No use in crying Tired of your lying Ain't nothing left to scream and dream in town monkey woman like you can do, I got to quit you Can't make it with you When you see me coming, baby Raise up your window high Hide your window to the sky, yeah When you see me coming, want you to raise up your window high Catch me passing on the fly, yeah See me leavin' Hang your head and cry Search your soul and Wonder why, yeah Hurry down, hurry down Hurry down back to sunshine See what tomorrow tomorrow brings Hurry down sunshine See what tomorrow brings (Tomorrow, tomorrow) Might bring rain, might bring the rites of spring (Tomorrow brought sorrow) Mean and evil you're a mean and evil and you Do things you ought not do (now you're a mean one, first time I've seen one) You're so mean and evil, you know what I mean? Do things you ought not do (You used to be cool Go find a new fool) But now I've got my money, honey, and I don't have to Put up with you Hate you and your town That's why I got To put you down Goodbye
