Well, I left out of Georgia 1964
My baby begged me: Daddy, please don't go
But I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left out of Georgia, you know I was Memphis bound
Well, I stayed in Memphis in 1969
That woman I loved didn't pay me no mind
So I left that town, you know I left that town
When I left out of Memphis, you know I was St. Louis bound
I didn't need no steam heat by my bed
Lady I slept with kept it cherry red
Well, I left that town, hmm, I left that town
When I left St. Louis, you know I was Chicago bound
I'm gonna tell you something you oughta know
Chicago's the best place I ever knowed
I'm-a stay in this town, I'm-a live in this town
Chicago's the place, it's the baddest place around
