[Intro: Robert Lamm]

Hey, hey

I do, ohh...

[Verse 1: Robert Lamm (Bandmates)]

Chicago, Chicago, that toddlin' town

Chicago, Chicago, I'll show you around, yeah (You'll stay around)

Bet your bottom dollar you lose the blues in

Chicago, Chicago, the folks who visit

All wanna settle down (All wanna settle down in my hometown)

On state street, that great street, I just wanna say

They do things they don't do on Broadway

(Ooh) You'll have the time, the time of your life

Bring all your friends, all your kids and your wife to

Chicago, Chicago, my hometown (Hey now baby)

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2: Robert Lamm]

Ooh baby, you'll have the time, the time of your life

Bring all your friends, all your kids and your wife to

Chicago, Chicago, my hometown

Oh, to Chicago, Chicago, my hometown, yeah
