lyrics

Wrote this tune reflecting on my time in Chi-Town. Coldest I'd ever been in my life. No faking the funk in Chicago!
lyrics
Chicago Streets, never miss a beat
Chicago Streets
Chicago Streets, never miss a beat
Chicago Streets…………………………..Chicago Streets!

Will make you realize
That this is real life
This ain’t no play thing
This is what’s happening

Well I come to find out
I thought I knew what life was all about
Later for theory
Believe me school is out … on

(chorus)

Look at the people
Check out their faces
No they’re not crazy
Just out of aces

The puppeteer play
They play their own way
Their smiles are friendly
But their teeth are deadly … on
(chorus)

(bridge)

Day after day, Live for the hustle
Warmth of smile … too much to ask of Chi-Town
Hide from the hawk, Try but he’ll catch you
Maybe it’s time … to think about a better life
