Sunshine In Chicago |
Pulling my guitar out of its green velvet case |
A hundred setlists are staring at my face |
And a note from a fan there is stiff and yellow |
A notice of inspection from Air Canada |
Sitting at the Days Inn hotel, Chicago |
Room 222 with the ceiling fan low |
And I just got in the door from Ontario |
And I’m going on tomorrow |
I took a walk down to Lincoln Avenue |
Got myself a foot massage and a manicure too |
And I looked up at the marquee |
And hey it was my name! |
Next to Julie Holland, think that was her name |
Sunshine in Chicago makes me think about my Dad |
It was 8 or 9 siblings I am told that he had |
When summertime came, his parents put him on a bus |
And sent him to his Uncle’s in Chicago for three months |
Sunshine in Chicago makes me feel pretty sad |
My band played here a lot in the '90s when we had |
Lots of female fans and fuck, they all were cute |
Now I just sign posters for guys in tennis shoes |
Tomorrow I’ll get up at a quarter after nine |
No itching or burning like I got the other time |
My back, it fucking hurts, but otherwise I’m fine |
Sunshine in Chicago, sunshine in Chicago |
