Chicago
NG 1987
Chicago, my city of pure delight
A place of beauty, a place so bright
A skyline of silver, a river of blue
A palce of unity, of friendship too
The city of skyscrapers, and landmarks galore
A place of business and a great urban score
Heading down Lake Shore Drive, seeing the sights
Beauty at every turn, shining lights at night
Down to Chinatown, a little taste of Asia
Roaming around the city and finding serenity
Artists in the park, street sounds of delight
Laughter and joy, blissful day and night
The city of our hearts, 'til the very end
Chicago, you'll always be our best friend.
