Chicago (chi-town) Blues - Earth, Wind & Fire

Booker T's at the front door 
Saying it's time to go 
Coltrane's at the mother blues tonight 
63rd to southshore 
We're cruising in the Dyna-Flo 
Ain't no way they let us play, but then 
they might 

Fourteen years not a one day more, yeah 
Struttin' my stuff up and down the floor 
Haven't you heard this groove before? 

Chorus 1: 
Ba da bop ba dee-ah ba dee-ah 
Ba da bop bop ba do-ah do-ay 
I'll never lose chicago blues 
Ba da bop bop ba do-ah do-ay 

We tried to be cool, yeah 
Flat tops up stove-pipes down 
Finding out the good stuff 
You never gonna learn in school 
Comes easy in this part of town 

I brought my sticks, we're sittin' in, all night 
Better be quick, gotta hold on tight 
It's gonna be a real jam down delight 

Chorus 2: 
Ba da bop ba dee-ah ba dee-ah 
Ba da bop bop ba do-ah do-ay 
I'll never lose chicago blues 
Send that drummer home and 
let me play (repeat) 

Ba da bop ba dee-ah ba dee-ah 
Ba da bop bop ba do-ah do-ay 
Ee-yay ee-yeay ee-yay ee-yay 
Ba da bop bop ba do-ah do-ay 

Ba dee-ah ba dee-ah 
Ee-yay ee-yeay ee-yay ee-yay 
Ba da bop bop ba do-ah do-ay
