My bags are waiting in a cab downstairs
|
I've got a ticket in my pocket says I'll make it out of here
|
And I came by here just to tell you good-by
|
I can see it in your face, you don't want to know why
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
I made up my mind late last night
|
That I would leave your city behind
|
Oh, and love is not in question
|
When you're holding the answer
|
In your cold heart and your closed mind
|
You've got a cold heart and a closed mind
|
|
Out in these streets these people are angry
|
Well, they push and shove one another aside
|
Well, I worked from the heart and you worked for the money
|
But I paid the price for your will to survive
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Chicago roars like a midwest hurricane
|
I see that storm in your eyes
|
One of these mornings when you're making your way
|
Just gonna wash you out with the tide
|
|
[Repeat first verse]
|
|
[Chorus]
|
