I'm sittin' in Chicago on the thirtieth floor
|
Lookin' down on the city below
|
My heart is cold as the wind through the streets
|
And outside it's starting to snow
|
|
Weeks ago I left you in sunny Caroline
|
Sittin' in our home in the pines
|
I got a job to do that takes me away from you
|
But your love still remains on my mind
|
|
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
|
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
|
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
|
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
|
|
The city lights have gone
|
And the night has brought a storm
|
And soon I'll be headin' home to you
|
I can taste your wine
|
Though it's been a long, long time
|
No more will I have the Chicago blues
|
|
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
|
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
|
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
|
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
|
|
Look, look around there's snow on the ground
|
What a cold hard life that I've known
|
But my love still glows like the city below
|
Because of all the love she's shown
|
|
I'm on a southbound train
|
Takin' me away from this snow
|
Takin' me where I really want to go
|
Out of these chilly winds and havin' no friends
|
I need the warmth of your sweet lovin' soul
|
|
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
|
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
|
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
|
She's the best thing that I'll ever find
|
Got the windy city blues
|
