«It’s ‘Shy’- short for Chicago!»
In a nightclub in town, I would love to sit down
All the seats are taken, all the hearts are breaking
Have you been here before? Got a boyfriend for sure
To Chicago I’ll go, friendly people I’m told
«How is you ain’t cold? It’s a windy city…»
Have a drink I’m payin’, forget what I’m sayin’
Is the music too loud? Or am I down and out?
Have you been to the States? Was it well worth the wait?
Get a Visa for work, send the checks back
When will we go to Chicago? «It’s ‘Shy’- short for Chicago!»
No, I’m not on my own- I am waiting, I am waiting
No, I’m not on my own- I am waiting, I am waiting for someone (x2)
Where’d you get that money? Not so sure it’s funny
Pockets feel so empty, give the checks back
When will we go to Chicago? «It’s ‘Shy’- short for Chicago!»
No, I’m not on my own- I am waiting, I am waiting for someone (x8)
I’m not on my own! I am waiting! I am waiting for someone! (x8)
