Take me to Chicago
Back in 1958.
Take me to Chicago
Back in 1958. 
Drop me out on the South Side, 
I wanna see all the greats
Up and down the street
With my guitar in my hand
Up and down the street
With my guitar in my hand
Joints just jumpin'
With the best bands in the land.
I got the blues before sunrise
Sure enough I do
I got to move ’cause every day I have the blues.
Take me to Chicago
Back in 1958
Drop me out on the South Side, 
I wanna see all the greats
Take me to Chicago
Back in 1958.
Take me to Chicago
Back in 1958. 
Drop me out on the South Side, 
I wanna see all the greats
