Julie Andrews Chicago Illinois Lyrics

NORMA
Trendy trav'lers tend to talk
Of London, Paris, Rome, New York,
Like only they were stylish and unique.
But out in the Midwest
Is the city I love the best:
A town so smart it's spelling stars
With: C - H - I - C...Chic!

Chicago, Illinois, is like a shiny toy.
The prairie State is proud to sate
That it's its pride and joy.
The Windy City sweeps ya clean off ya feet;
POW!
Its charm is complete;
POW!
They're knockin' ya flat, this way or that
On ev'ry downtown street.
POW!

The White Sox and the Cubs
And other sporting clubs
Make living here a pretty nifty ploy.
Smack on the lake, this is the report!
Someday, they say, we'll have an airport! When they say: "hey, I'm from Chi!",
They mean Chicago, Il-li-nois!

CHORUS
Chicago, Illinois, is like a shiny toy.
The prairie State is proud to sate
That it's its pride and joy.
The Windy City sweeps ya clean off ya feet;
Its charm is complete;
They're knockin' ya flat, this way or that
On ev'ry downtown street.

The White Sox and the Cubs
And other sporting clubs
Make living here a pretty nifty ploy.
Smack on the lake, this is the report!
Someday, they say, we'll have an airport!
When they say: "hey, I'm from Chi!",
They mean Chicago, Il-li...
Chicago is the killer.
They mean Chicago, Illi...
C-H-I-C-A-G-O, Illinois!

Yay!
