The Night Chicago Died - Paper Lace[00:00:00]
Daddy was a cop on the east side of Chicago[00:00:20]
Back in the U S A back in the bad old days[00:00:24]
In the heat of a summer night[00:00:29]
In the land of the dollar bill[00:00:34]
When the town of Chicago died[00:00:38]
And they talk about it still[00:00:43]
When a man named Al Capone[00:00:45]
Tried to make that town his own[00:00:47]
And he called his gang to war[00:00:50]
With the forces of the law[00:00:52]
I heard my mama cry[00:00:54]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:00:57]
Brother what a night it really was[00:01:03]
Brother what a fight it really was[00:01:05]
Glory be[00:01:08]
I heard my mama cry[00:01:10]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:01:13]
Brother what a night the people saw[00:01:20]
Brother what a fight the people saw[00:01:22]
Yes indeed[00:01:24]
And the sound of the battle rang[00:01:27]
Through the streets of the old east side[00:01:32]
'Til the last of the hoodlum gang[00:01:37]
Had surrendered up or died[00:01:41]
There was shouting in the street[00:01:43]
And the sound of running feet[00:01:46]
And I asked someone who said[00:01:48]
'Bout a hundred cops are dead[00:01:50]
I heard my mama cry[00:01:52]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:01:55]
Brother what a night it really was[00:02:02]
Brother what a fight it really was[00:02:04]
Glory be[00:02:06]
I heard my mama cry[00:02:09]
I heard her pray the night Chicago died[00:02:12]
Brother what a night the people saw[00:02:18]
Brother what a fight the people saw[00:02:21]
Yes indeed[00:02:23]
And ther was no sound at all[00:02:26]
But the clock upon the wall[00:02:30]
Then the door burst open wide[00:02:35]
And my daddy stepped inside[00:02:37]
And he kissed my mama's face[00:02:39]
And he brushed her tears away[00:02:42]
The night Chicago died[00:02:44]
Na-na na na-na-na na-na-na-na-na[00:02:47]
The night Chicago died[00:02:50]
Brother what a night the people saw[00:02:53]
Brother what a fight the people saw[00:02:55]
Yes indeed[00:02:58]
The night Chicago died[00:03:00]
The night Chicago died[00:03:07]
Brother what a night it really was[00:03:10]
Brother what a fight it really was[00:03:12]
Glory be[00:03:14]
The night Chicago died[00:03:17]
