The Night Chicago Died - Paper Lace[00:00:00]
Daddy was a cop on the east side of Chicago[00:00:18]
Back in the U S A back in the bad old days[00:00:22]
In the heat of a summer night[00:00:28]
In the land of the dollar bill[00:00:32]
When the town of Chicago died[00:00:37]
And they talk about it still[00:00:41]
When a man named Al Capone[00:00:44]
Tried to make that town his own[00:00:46]
And he called his gang to war[00:00:48]
With the forces of the law[00:00:50]
I heard my mama cry[00:00:52]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:00:55]
Brother what a night it really was[00:01:02]
Brother what a fight it really was[00:01:04]
Glory be[00:01:06]
I heard my mama cry[00:01:09]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:01:12]
Brother what a night the people saw[00:01:18]
Brother what a fight the people saw[00:01:21]
Yes indeed[00:01:23]
And the sound of the battle rang[00:01:26]
Through the streets of the old east side[00:01:31]
'Til the last of the hoodlum gang[00:01:35]
Had surrendered up or died[00:01:40]
There was shouting in the street[00:01:42]
And the sound of running feet[00:01:44]
And I asked someone who said[00:01:46]
'Bout a hundred cops are dead[00:01:49]
I heard my mama cry[00:01:50]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:01:54]
Brother what a night it really was[00:02:00]
Brother what a fight it really was[00:02:02]
Glory be[00:02:05]
I heard my mama cry[00:02:07]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:02:11]
Brother what a night the people saw[00:02:17]
Brother what a fight the people saw[00:02:19]
Yes indeed[00:02:21]
And ther was no sound at all[00:02:24]
But the clock upon the wall[00:02:29]
Then the door burst open wide[00:02:34]
And my daddy stepped inside[00:02:36]
And he kissed my mama's face[00:02:38]
And he brushed her tears away[00:02:40]
The night Chicago died[00:02:42]
Na-na na na-na-na na-na-na-na-na[00:02:46]
The night Chicago died[00:02:49]
Brother what a night the people saw[00:02:52]
Brother what a fight the people saw[00:02:54]
Yes indeed[00:02:56]
The night Chicago died[00:02:59]
Na-na na na-na-na na-na-na-na-na[00:03:02]
The night Chicago died[00:03:06]
Brother what a night it really was[00:03:09]
Brother what a fight it really was[00:03:11]
Glory be[00:03:13]
The night Chicago died[00:03:16]
