[00:08.64]I remember when I was snowed in and up at old Shire town.
[00:10.65]I'm sure the next tour take me right back through that town.
[00:15.08]Snow was up to your shoulders man and that ain't no lie.
[00:18.86]Chicago wasn't so cold, it would make a polar bear cry.
[00:22.55]Now when you hear the people talk about their bird called the hawk
[00:25.86]Now I'm gonna tell ya somethin' that'll make you, let out a squawk
[00:29.85]Now where I live the weather's mostly warm.
[00:32.54]We don't have to worry about no snow or if we have a storm.
[00:37.47]But Shire town sits on the shores of a lake,
[00:40.82]And when that hawk flaps his wings it make you shiver an' shake.
[00:44.17]Now when you hear the people talk about their bird called the hawk
[00:47.73]Man, I'm tellin' ya one thing, they just let out a squawk
[01:27.77]But man, you should a been there in the winter of '78.
[01:29.93]You couldn't catch a cab down on State and Lake.
[01:33.58]Now, you know that's bad 'cause, that's right in the heart of town.
[01:38.13]And it was so bad the mayor had to close the whole town down.
[01:41.64]Now when you hear the people talk about their bird called the hawk
[01:44.85]Oh man, I tell you, tell you, let out a squawk
