Chicago Lyrics & Chords By Flow & Zeo

It was about 6.15 in the morning.
I'm drunk, and I'm high, and I'm in Chicago.
Now, I had just stumbled out of some club, somewhere,
I can't even remember.
And I walked to the corner to hail a cab.
And after 5 empty cabs just passed me by,
one finally stopped.
He was this white, mid-western, working-class kinda guy,
you know the type.
So anyway, I jumped in and I said "Hyatt Regency, please."
And he looked at me like I was crazy,
and said "Where? Downtown?"
And I said "Yeah!"
Now, the whole way down to the Hyatt,
he kept looking at me through the rear-view mirror
with this real suspicious stare.
I ain't pay him no mind though,
cos a brother like me was just interested in the beautiful Chicago skyline.
The way it looked from Lake Shore Drive.
All sparkly and clean in the sunrise.
As we pulled up to the luxurious hotel,
and I paid my fare,
the cabby turned around with a curious grin and asked me:
"Where you going? To work?"
And I looked back at him and I said:
"Work? Brother, I'm going to sleep!"
