The Night Chicago Died (Re-Recorded Version)

Daddy was a cop on the east side of Chicago
Back in the USA, back in the bad old days

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 momma 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 momma 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

Till 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 momma 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 momma 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

Then there 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 momma's face
And he brushed her tears away

The night Chicago died

Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

The night Chicago died

Brother, what a night the people saw
Brother, what a fight the people saw
Yes, indeed

The night Chicago died

Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na

The night Chicago died

Brother, what a night the people saw
Brother, what a fight the people saw
Glory be!

The night Chicago died
Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na-na-na
The night Chicago died
Brother, what a night the people saw
