Windy City Blues by The Marshall Tucker Band Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I'm sittin' in Chicago on the thirtieth floor
Lookin' down on the city below
My heart is cold as the wind through the streets
And outside it's starting to snow

[Verse 2]
Weeks ago I left you in sunny Caroline
Sittin' in our home in the pines
I got a job to do that takes me away from you
But your love still remains on my mind

[Chorus]
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
She's the best thing that I'd ever found

[Verse 3]
The city lights have gone and the night has brought a storm
And soon I'll be headin' home to you
I can taste your wine though it's been a long, long time
No more will I have these Chicago blues
[Chorus]
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
She's the best thing that I'd ever found

[Bridge]
Look, look around at snow on the ground
What a cold hard life that I've known
But my love still glows like the city below
Because of all the love she's shown

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 4]
I'm on a southbound train takin' me away from this snow
Takin' me where I really want to go
Out of these chilly winds and having no friends
I need the warmth of your sweet lovin' soul

[Chorus]
I'm in love with that girl from that roebuck town
Since I met her she's made my life so sound
She's sweet and she's kind and she's mine all mine
She's the best thing that I'd ever found
[Outro]
Got the windy city blues
