Lyrics for Song: Windy City
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Doris Day
From calamity jane..
Calamity .. Boys chicagees the biggest noise in ilanoy..
I just flew in from the windy city
the windy city is mighty pretty
but they aint got what we got
no sir e
Theyve got those minstrel shows
purty ladys in the big chapos
private parks
public parks
they got fountains , civic virtue
they got mountains there that sqertue.
On the street was a dancing fella
all dressed up in a suit a yella
and the dance that he did there
went something like this.
( does a dance)
Calamity . Whistle
( dances with whistling in back.)
U shoulda seen me a window shopping
window shopping with eyes a popping
at the sites that u see there yes sir e
press a bell and a moment later
up u go in an elevator
just as fast as a polcat a climbing a tree
i heard claim hundreds came
to a thing they call a baseball game
open stores revolving doors
they got taches cause they order
cause a haircut costs a quarter
I just flew in fro mthe windy city
the windy city is mighty pretty
but i aint a a swopping half a deadwood
for the whole of illanoy
