Lyrics Taking It On Uptown - Chicago

Taking It On Uptown

Walkin through the fog on a cold and cloudy night
Lookin through the smog that surrounds the mornin light
The shades of brown.
it gets me down, exactly like my life
I dont deserve the hand Im dealt, a flush in spades of strife
Ive grown tired of speeches that are nothing but a bore
So Im rounding up the broken me and headin on out the door
Without no lag Im packin my bag of discontented frowns
And hopping numer eighty-six, the first train that is freedom bound
Got my bag of many frowns and Im takin it on uptown
Big city lights
Funkier nights
Happier days
Goin my way
It should be right
But Im still uptight
Hey, I better put down
And get movin on Im through with aggravation
Dont deserve the degradation
Im putting all the negatives down
To hop the train thats feedom bound for uptown
Got my bag of many frowns and Im takin it on uptown
