Talkin' Bout Chicago

Lyrics

I was born in Mississippi in a little country shack
 Only clothes I owned was hangin' on my back
 But I moved up north, big city bound
 They were dancin' to the blues and gettin' on down
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from
 They got some mighty fine women
 Sunnin' on the lake shores
 And no matter where you go
 There's always gonna be a dance floor
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from
 The north side was playing jazz music
 The south side had the beat
 The west side was jumping to the blues
 And stompin' their feet
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from
 ♪
 If the Southerners get homesick
 I'll tell them where to go
 There's a little bit of delta y'all
 Right here in Chicago
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from
 We got snow in the winter but nobody seem to mind
 'Cause it don't seem long before it's summertime
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago, that's where I'm from
 If you wanna feel good you know where to go
 Follow your heart and soul
 On the way to Chicago
 ♪
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from
 Talkin' 'bout Chicago
 Baby, that's where I'm comin' from

 Yeah
