(a boogie)

This is my story about Chicago
I learned it all one day
Your best friend will decieve you
He'll steal your gal away

Hey, believe what I tell you
Ev'ry word I said
Don't expect nothin' different
Chicago is just that way

I used to have a friend
I would let him wear my clothes
He got sweet on my gal
She gave him all my gold

Believe what I tell you
Ev'ry word I said
Don't expect nothin' different
Chicago is just that way

(piano, guitar & instrumental)

The other night while cruisin'
Down the avenue
I caught them huggin' an kissin'
Like she an I used to do

Believe what I tell you
Ev'ry word I said
Don't expect nothin' different
Chicago is just that way-ay

I walked over to the table
This is what I had to say
'You can have her old man
But you both should be dead

Believe what I tell you
Ev'ry word I said
Don't expect nothin' different
Chicago is just that way-ay

(piano & instrumental to end)
