So long toots   Bound for Chicago it's been swell   You got your hooks    Into me momma   You know damn well   You know i gotta leave   Before you're up a tree   And our good thing comes crashin to the ground      So long toots   Bound for Chicago it's been grand   The distance might as well be Morocco or Pakistan   Tonight is New Year's Eve   But theres nothin up my sleeve   But a place to play where the people all swing around   They made a member of me   So long toots   Bound for Chicago now...      So long toots   bound for Chicago it's alright   I can't stay as long as i oughta    It's almost light   And that's the final star   And it's been the best so far   But he's sleeping all alone in that big sky      So long toots (BOUND FOR CHICAGO)   So long toots (BOUND FOR CHICAGO)   So long toots bound for Chicago now.....
