To Chicago With Love Lyrics

(Harlan Howard)

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.Connie Smith - To Chicago With Love - http://motolyrics.com/connie-smith/to-chicago-with-love-lyrics.html

He says I've got a lotta new friends now honey
The Chicago sure is a swinging place
And by the way I just got married
And I'll be bringing in home with me one of these days.

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...
