Picketlines and pepperspray

In chicago
Theres a simple path for everyone to follow
When the paper says no work come back tomorrow
It's the lights that wipe away the pain and sorrow
I don't ever wanna leave
Chicago

In chicago
Sillouettes and shadows lead us through the night
So if we're gonna do it we better do it right
It's just the way you move the way you hit the lights
I don't ever wanna leave

Next to a chainlink fence
Our picket lines will never let them in
I'll never ever feel this way again
I've given them all i have to give

It's the way you look at me that makes me never let you go
With all this violence and decay i need to give you all my hope
Cause i can never walk away
From chicago

On these sidewalks i can tell you anything
In chicago

Next to a chainlink fence
Our picket lines will never let them in
I'll never ever feel this way again
I've given them all i have to give
