| I got the surprise, the surprise of my life
|
| I had to stop and stare
|
| I saw a man dancing with his own wife
|
| And you’ll never guess where
|
| Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town, that toddlin' town
|
| Chicago, Chicago, I’ll show you around, I love it
|
| Betcha bottom dollar you’ll lose your blues
|
| In Chicago, Chicago
|
| The town that Billy Sunday could not shut down
|
| On State Street, that great street
|
| I just want to stay, I just want to stay
|
| They do things they don’t do on Broadway, say
|
| They have the time, the time of their life
|
| I saw a man who danced with his wife
|
| In Chicago, Chicago, Chicago, Chicago
|
| Free and easy town, brassy, breezy town
|
| Chicago, Chicago
|
| Let me cool my heels right down at Marshall Field
|
| Come and walk with
|
| Along the lake, to the drake
|
| Hollar and hoot, all through the loop
|
| Shout out now to Mrs. O’Leary’s cow
|
| No she-she, life is peachy
|
| Chicago, we’ll meet at the Pump Room Ambassador East
|
| To say the least
|
| On shishkabob and breast of squab we will feed and get free
|
| Don’t tell me sin is rampid and right
|
| Think of that man who danced with his wife
|
| In Chicago, Chicago
|
| I feel sympathy for that wonderful, windy town! |
