Chicago - Takin' It On Uptown Lyrics
Walkin' through the fog on a cold and cloudy nightLookin' through the smog that surrounds the mornin' lightThe shades of brown. It gets me down, exactly like my lifeI don't deserve the hand I'm dealt: a flush in spades of strife.I've grown tired of speeches that are nothing but a boreSo I'm rounding up the broken me and headin' on out the doorWithout no lag I'm packin' my bag of discontented frownsAnd hopping number eighty-six, the first train that is freedom bound.Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown.Big city lightsFunkier nightsHappier daysGoin' my wayIt should be rightBut I'm still uptightHey, I better put downAnd get movin' onI'm through with aggravationDon't deserve the degradationI'm putting all the negatives downTo hop the train that's freedom bound for uptown.Got my bag of many frowns and I'm takin' it on uptown.
