Chicago Bound

Well, I left out of Georgia nineteen sixty four
My baby begged me daddy please don't go
But I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left out of Georgia
You know I was Memphis bound

Well, I stayed in Memphis in nineteen sixty nine
That woman I loved didn't pay me no mind
So I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left out of Memphis
You know I was St. Louis bound

I didn't need no steam heat by my bed
Lady I slept with kept it cherry red
Well I left that town, hmm I left that town
When I left St. Louis
You know I was Chicago bound

I'm gonna tell you something you oughta know
Chicago's the best place I ever know
I'ma stay in this town, I'ma live in this town
Chicago's the place, it's the baddest place around
