作词 : Semel, Walker
You always said I wouldn't stay
I guess you saw the way
Before it all began
I've always been a changin' train
And when you think on this
You might forgive me then
Thanks for Chicago Mr James
And all the shiny suits
And all the shining names
The things a country boy can't grace
Without the look of shame
Upon a city face
And you needed more
Than the smile I wore
You picked me up on my way down
The dusty one horse town
I won't forget the jail
The mayor's wife and Cadillac
The sheriff on my back
'Til you put up the bail
Thanks for Chicago Mr James
You got a lot of grace
But you're an empty place
The dawn falls hard upon my face
I'll move as I began
Thru' fields without a plan
Thanks for Chicago Mr James
That world of grey and 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
zuo ci : Semel, Walker
You always said I wouldn' t stay
I guess you saw the way
Before it all began
I' ve always been a changin' train
And when you think on this
You might forgive me then
Thanks for Chicago Mr James
And all the shiny suits
And all the shining names
The things a country boy can' t grace
Without the look of shame
Upon a city face
And you needed more
Than the smile I wore
You picked me up on my way down
The dusty one horse town
I won' t forget the jail
The mayor' s wife and Cadillac
The sheriff on my back
' Til you put up the bail
Thanks for Chicago Mr James
You got a lot of grace
But you' re an empty place
The dawn falls hard upon my face
I' ll move as I began
Thru' fields without a plan
Thanks for Chicago Mr James
That world of grey and 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
