Sidewalks Of Chicago
The DLevis that I'm wearin' have been gGood to me
AThey just won't adDmit they're growin' old
Though my shGirt's made contact with the gutter, now and then
AAt least it keDeps my body from the cold
Thank God, folks back home in Harland County
Can't see what success has done to me
Would you believe the kids in Harland High School
Voted me most likely to succeed
Chorus:
NoD7w I'm walkiGn' on the sidewalks of Chicago
EIf I buy the bAread I can't afford the wine
Now I'm D7walkin' on the sidewalks of ChiGcago
AWishin' I had lived some other Dtime
I wasn't here too long before I met her
And then later she really swept me off my feet
And she stayed just long enough to make me love her
And now they're sweepin' me up off the street
My mama thinks I've really hit the big time
She's written ever day since I've been gone
But she doesn't know that 109 West Charolette
Is the address of the West Side Mission Home
Chorus
