(Words and music by Danny Seraphine and David "Hawk" Wolinski)
|
Take me back to Chicago
|
Lay my soul to rest
|
Where my life was free and easy
|
Remember me at my best.
|
Take me back to Chicago
|
Where music was all I had
|
I tried to be good as I could
|
And sometimes that made me sad.
|
Take me back to Chicago, to Chicago
|
Why don't you take me back
|
Take me back, take me back
|
To Chicago.
|
I still dream of the Lake of peacefulness
|
The warm summer breeze
|
'Cause my life was so much simpler then
|
Street corners and Tastee Freeze.
|
Take me back to Chicago
|
'Cause hustlin's not my style
|
L.A. was just a bit too hard
|
I wish I could be a child
|
Livin' back in Chicago, in Chicago
|
Why don't you take me back
|
Take me back, take me back
|
To Chicago.
|
Take me back to Chicago
|
Lay my soul to rest
|
Where my life was free and easy
|
Remember me at my best.
|
Take me back to Chicago
|
'Cause hustlin's not my style
|
L.A. was just a bit too hard
|
I wish I could be a child.
|
Livin' back in Chicago, in Chicago
|
Why don't you take me back
|
Take me back, take me back
|
To Chicago.
|
Take me back, take me back....
