Sweet Home Chicago

Blues Brothers

Come on, oh baby don't you want to go
Oh come on, oh baby don't you want to go
Back to that same old place
Sweet home Chicago!
Come on, baby don't you want to go
Hida-hey, baby don't you want to go
Back to that same old place
Oh sweet home Chicago
Well one and one is two
Six and two is eight
Come on baby don't you make me late
Hida-hey, baby don't you want to go
Back to that same old place
Sweet home Chicago
Come on, baby don't you want to go
Oh come on, baby don't you want to go
Back to that same old place
Sweet home Chicago
(solo)
Six and three is nine
Nine and nine is eighteen
Look there brother baby and
you'll see what I've seen
Hida-hey, baby don't you want to go
Back to that same old place
Sweet home Chicago
Oh come on, baby don't you want to go-oh-ooh
Come on, baby don't you want to go
Back to that same old place
My sweet home Chicago
(solo)

My Kind of Town Lyrics

Frank Sinatra Lyrics

Now this could only happen to a guy like me
And only happen in a town like this
And so I say to each of you most gratefully
As I throw each one of you a kiss

This is my kind of town, Chicago is
My kind of town, Chicago is
My kind of people too
People who, smile at you

And each time I roam, Chicago is
Calling me home, Chicago is
One town that won't let you down
It's my kind of town

My kind of town, Chicago is
My kind of town, Chicago is
My kind of razzmatazz
And it has, all that jazz

And each time I leave, Chicago is
Tuggin' my sleeve, Chicago is
The Wrigley Building, Chicago is
The Chicago Cubbies, Chicago is
One town that won't let you down
It's my kind of town

    ....and Chicago's O'Hare is one of the best Airports! Very passengers friendly, gentle staff, clearly arranged, and just fun! Lucky me stop over there once more. CDG? No way! Never again! lol.
