Connie Smith - To Chicago With Love lyrics

rate me

He said there's no future back here in these hills

His mind grew so restless he couldn't be still

Though I knew I might lose him and all I dreamed of

Still I send my baby to Chicago with love

Big city don't hurt him don't change him I pray

Keep him the same sweet boy as when he went away

He'll never know how often I pray to God above

To send down his blessings to Chicago with love

Well I just got his first letter he's got a job and things are looking fine

He keeps sorry he didn't write me before but he just didn't have a time

He says I've got a lotta new friends now honey the Chicago sure is a swingin' place

And by the way I just got married

And I'll be bringin' in home with me one of these days

Big city don't hurt him...
