George Thorogood & The Destroyers Lyrics
"Chicago Bound"

Well I left out of Georgia 1964,
My baby 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 1969,
That woman I loved didn't pay me no mind
So I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left out of Memphis you know I was St. Louis bound

I didn't need no steam heat by my bed,
Lady I slept with kept it cherry red
Well I left that town, hmm I left that town
When I left St. Louis you know I was Chicago bound

I'm gonna tell you something you oughta know,
Chicago's the best place I ever knowed
I'ma stay in this town, I'ma live in this town
Chicago's the place it's the baddest place around
