Chicago (Original Version)

I met her on the way to Chicago

Where she was all alone

And so was I so I asked her for her name

She smiled and looked at me

I was surprised to see

That a woman like that was really into me

She said she didn’t have no man

Raised the kids the very best she can {She’s lovin’ me}

She told me she was all alone

Said at home she didn’t have no phone {she’s wanting me}

She said just to give her a page

Fifty nine was the code she gave {she’s lovin’ me}

She’d lie to you, lie to me

But she was lovin me, lovin me, yeah

I never would have thought she was living like that

Her words seemed so sincere

And when I held her near she would tell me how she feels

It felt so real to me

This girl she had to be

An angel sent from heaven just for me

She said that she didn’t have no man

Raised the kids the very best she can {she’s lovin’ me}

She told me she was all alone

Said at home she didn’t have no phone {look who’s lovin me}

She said just to give her a page

Fifty nine was the code she gave {she gave to me}

She’d lie to you, lie to me

‘Cause she was lovin’ me, lovin’ me, yeah {look who’s lovin’ me}

She tried to live a double life

Lovin’ me while she was still your wife {she’s wanting me}

She thought that lovin’ me was cool

With you at work and the kids at school {she’s lovin’ me}

She said that it would never end

Tried to keep me any way she can {she’s wanting me}

She’d lie to you, lie to me,

But you got a family, family, yeah

I didn’t know she was already spoken for

‘Cause I’m not that kind of man

I swear that I woulda’ never looked her way

Now I feel so much shame

And all things have to change

You should know that I’m holdin’ her to blame

She said she didn’t have no man

Raised the kids the very best she can {holding her to blame}

She told me she was all alone,

Said at home she didn’t have no phone {holding her to blame}

She said just to give her a page

Fifty nine was the code she gave {holding her to blame}

She’d lie to you, lie to me,

While she was lovin’ me, lovin’ me, yeah

She tried to live a double life

Lovin’ me while she was still your wife {holding her to blame}

She thought that lovin’ me was cool

With you at work and the kids at school {holding her to blame}

She said that it would never end

Tried to keep me any way she can {holding her to blame}

She’d lie to you, lie to me,

‘cause she had a family, family, yeah {angel sent from heaven just for me}

She said she didn’t have no man

Raised the kids the very best she can {look she’s lovin’ me}

She told me she was all alone,

Said at home she didn’t have no phone {look who’s lovin’ me}

She said just to give her a page

Fifty nine was the code she gave {lovin’ me}

She’d lie to you, lie to me,

While she was lovin’ me, lovin’ me, yeah {look who’s lovin’ me}

She tried to live a double life

Lovin’ me while she was still your wife {she was wantin’ me}

She thought that lovin’ me was cool

With you at work and the kids at school {she was lovin’ me}

She said that it would never end

Tried to keep me any way she can {she was wantin’ me}

She’d lie to you, lie to me,

‘cause she had a family, family, yeah
