The Legend Of Pegleg Sullivan

Lyrics

1871 was the year underneath an October sky
 When a windy city man had set out with a plan to set a fire but nobody knows why
 So Pegleg headed out back with a match and a bucket of kerosene
 Little did he know that the wind would blow through the streets with anarchy
 Pegleg didn't have an alibi
 He didn't have a story to tell
 But he bought his one way ticket straight to hell
 Cuz he burned the whole damn city
 Watched it all go down
 Yeah he burned all of Chicago to the ground
 yeah he burned that beautiful city
 He torched that beautiful town
 Yeah he burned all of Chicago to the ground
 Flames spread fast every night
 While they passed through the alleys and the dead end streets
 From suburban doors to the lakefront shore demolishing everything
 And pegleg never got blamed for the mess made
 Said he never broke the law
 But all that remained was the charred black stains
 Proving every things his fault
 Pegleg didn't have an alibi
 He didn't have a story to tell
 But he bought his one way ticket straight to hell
 Cuz he burned the whole damn city
 Watched it all go down
 Yeah he burned all of Chicago to the ground
 yeah he burned that beautiful city
 He torched that beautiful town
 Yeah he burned all of Chicago to the ground
 Of all the books printed on his terrain
 None raised the flag on one mans legacy
 Now everybody knows the truth of the stories being exposed
 So Pegleg's going down in infamy.
 Cuz he burned the whole damn city
 Watched it all go down
 Yeah he burned all of Chicago to the ground
 yeah he burned that beautiful city
 He torched that beautiful town
 Yeah he burned all of Chicago to the ground
