Diahann Carroll, funny musical can anyone tell me where does this scene come from? however diahann's voice is lack of anything worthwhile to say, i don't think she is a gifted singer. i love this song because the lyrics is lively, the first time i listened to this song in a record it was sang by an anonymous japanese jazz vocalist in a 30's recorded compilation. it's a interesting and amazing thing to hear that the japanese femal singer articulated a very nice english voice!

Chicago

Chicago, Chicago
That toddlin' town
Chicago, Chicago
I'll show you around, I love it
Bet your bottom dollar
You'll lose the blues
In Chicago, Chicago
The town that Billy Sunday
Could not shut down
On State Street, that great street
I just wanna say
They do thing's
They don't do on Broadway, say
They have the time
The time or their life
I saw a man
He danced with his wife
In Chicago, my home town
Chicago, Chicago
That toddlin' town
Chicago, Chicago
I'll show you around, I love it
Bet your bottom dollar
You'll lose the blues
In Chicago, Chicago
The town that Billy Sunday
Could not shut down
On State Street, that great street
I just wanna say
They do thing's
They don't do on Broadway, say
They have the time
The time or their life
I saw a man
He danced with his wife
In Chicago
Chicago, my home home town
