The Night Chicago Died |

- Paper Lace |
| [00:12.50] |
|
| [00:27.59] |
In the heat of a summer night |
| [00:32.56] |
In the land of the dollar bill |
| [00:36.70] |
When the town of Chicago died |
| [00:41.19] |
And they talk about it still |
| [00:43.47] |
When a man named Al Capone |
| [00:45.69] |
Tried to make that town his own |
| [00:47.85] |
And he called his gang to war |
| [00:50.10] |
With the forces of the law |
| [00:52.04] |
I heard my mama cry |
| [00:55.19] |
I heard her pray the night Chicago died |
| [01:01.57] |
Brother what a night it really was |
| [01:03.77] |
Brother what a fight it really was |
| [01:05.87] |
Glory be |
| [01:08.27] |
I heard my mama cry |
| [01:11.79] |
I heard her pray the night Chicago died |
| [01:18.11] |
Brother what a night the people saw |
| [01:20.32] |
Brother what a fight the people saw |
| [01:22.40] |
Yes indeed |
| [01:24.43] |
|
| [01:25.96] |
And the sound of the battle rang |
| [01:30.12] |
Through the streets of the old east side |
| [01:34.73] |
'Til the last of the hoodlum gang |
| [01:39.13] |
Had surrendered up or died |
| [01:41.32] |
There was shouting in the street |
| [01:43.62] |
And the sound of running feet |
| [01:45.83] |
And I asked someone who said |
| [01:48.10] |
Bout a hundred cops are dead |
| [01:49.83] |
I heard my mama cry |
| [01:53.07] |
I heard her pray the night Chicago died |
| [01:59.44] |
Brother what a night it really was |
| [02:01.66] |
Brother what a fight it really was |
| [02:03.86] |
Glory be! |
| [02:06.64] |
I heard my mama cry |
| [02:09.66] |
I heard her pray the night Chicago died |
| [02:16.01] |
Brother what a night the people saw |
| [02:18.21] |
Brother what a fight the people saw |
| [02:20.34] |
Yes indeed |
| [02:22.54] |
|
| [02:23.89] |
And ther was no sound at all |
| [02:28.02] |
But the clock upon the wall |
| [02:32.82] |
Then the door burst open wide |
| [02:34.83] |
And my daddy stepped inside |
| [02:37.06] |
And he kissed my mama's face |
| [02:39.20] |
And he brushed her tears away |
| [02:40.99] |
The night Chicago died |
| [02:44.21] |
La la la la...... |
| [02:47.94] |
The night Chicago died |
| [02:50.74] |
Brother what a night the people saw |
| [02:52.78] |
Brother what a fight the people saw |
| [02:54.98] |
Yes indeed |
| [02:57.58] |
The night Chicago died |
| [03:00.86] |
La la la la...... |
| [03:04.42] |
The night Chicago died |
| [03:07.46] |
Brother what a night it really was |
| [03:09.45] |
Brother what a fight it really was |
| [03:11.56] |
Glory be |
| [03:14.49] |
The night Chicago died |
| [03:17.27] |
La la la la...... |
| [03:20.26] |
The night Chicago died |
| [03:23.86] |
