Thanks For Chicago Mr. James Lyrics - Joan Of Arc

you always said i wouldn't stay 

i'm guess you saw me? before it all began 

i've always been a changing train 

and when you think i'm lost? 

you might forgive me then 

thanks for chicago, mr. james 

and all the shiny suits and all the shiny names 

the things a country boy can place 

the look of shame upon your city face 

and you needed more 

___ 

you picked me up on my way down 

that dusty one-horse town 

i won't forget the jail 

and there's wife and cadillac 

the sheriff on my back 'til you put up the bail 

thanks for chicago, mr. james 

you've got a lot of grace 

but you're an empty place 

the dawn falls hard upon my face 

i move as i began through fields ___ 

thanks for chicago, mr. james 

that world of grain gold that watched you growing old 

the things i never saw, i see 

to think, that i'm still free and i'm not feeling cold
