note. this has NOTHING at all to do with my earlier "make fun of your band" thread :evilgrin:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAA (well, maybe a little)

In the heat of a summer night
In the land of the dollar bill
When the town of Chicago died
And they talk about it still

When a man named Al Capone
Tried to make that town his own
And he called his gang to war
With the forces of the law

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

And the sound of the battle rang
Through the streets of the old east side
'Til the last of the hoodlum gang
Had surrendered up or died

There was shouting in the street
And the sound of running feet
And I asked someone who said
Bout a hundred cops are dead

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be!

I heard my mama cry
I heard her pray the night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

And ther was no sound at all
But the clock upon the wall
Then the door burst open wide
And my daddy stepped inside
And he kissed my mama's face
And he brushed her tears away

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night it really was
Brother what a fight it really was
Glory be

The night Chicago died
The night Chicago died
Brother what a night the people saw
Brother what a fight the people saw
Yes indeed

3. I think they are awaiting the "Bo Donaldson and the Heywoods"

reunion tour, hoping for a festival-seating show.

(And they are keeping their fingers crossed that maybe, if they're lucky, Terry Jacks will be the warm-up act...)

7. Always liked that one, along with the Sweet's (actually fairly awful)

song-that-won't-be-named-because-its-too-dangerously-infectious...


Okay....that other one was "Blockbuster," a fairy heinous song (though I do like their "Ballroom Blitz"...enjoy the earworm!



Does anyone know the way
Did we hear someone say
We just haven't got a clue what to do
Does anyone know the way
There's got to be a way
To Blockbusterrrrrrrrrrr.............

8. Right here!

I honestly really like that song... a lot. It's just too damn catchy not to like it in my opinion. Maybe it helps that I wasn't alive during the seventies to hear it played to death on AM radio, though...
