Chicago Bound Songtext
von Jimmy Rogers
Chicago Bound Songtext
When I left out of Georgia in 19 and 34
My baby she 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 19 and 39
The woman I'd been lovin′ she didn't pay me no mind
Then I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left Memphis, you know I was St.Louis bound
I didn't need no steam heat by my bed
The little girl I had kept it cherry red
But I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left St.Louis, you know I was Chicago bound
I′m gonna tell you something that you all should know
Chicago is the best place I ever knowed
I′m gonna stay in this town, I'm gonna live in this town
I′m gonna live in Chicago, it's the greatest place around
My baby she 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 19 and 39
The woman I'd been lovin′ she didn't pay me no mind
Then I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left Memphis, you know I was St.Louis bound
I didn't need no steam heat by my bed
The little girl I had kept it cherry red
But I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left St.Louis, you know I was Chicago bound
I′m gonna tell you something that you all should know
Chicago is the best place I ever knowed
I′m gonna stay in this town, I'm gonna live in this town
I′m gonna live in Chicago, it's the greatest place around
