brook benton - sidewalks of chicago lyrics
the levi’s that i’m wearing have been good to me
they just won’t admit they’re growing old
though my shirts’ve made contract with a gutter
at least it keeps my body from the cold
thank god, folks back home in harlan county
can’t see what success has done to me
would you believe the kids in harlan high school
voted me most likely to successeed
now i’m walking on the sidewalks of chicago
if i buy a bread i can’t afford the wine
now i’m walking on the sidewalks of chicago
wishing i’d have lived some other time
it wasn’t long before i met her
she really swept me off my feet
she stayed just long enough to make me love her
and now they’re sweepin’ me off the street
mama thinks i’ve really hit the big time
she’s written every day since i’ve been gone
but she don’t know that 109 west charlotte
is the adress of the mission home
i’m walking on the sidewalks of chicago
if i buy a bread i can’t afford the wine
now i’m walking on the sidewalks of chicago
wishing i’d have lived some other time
walking on the sidewalks of chicago
wishing i’d have lived some other time
