Lyrics

Cold in Chicago in '99
Could see a storm coming down the line
Skies had darkened, it was a blur all around
It started snowing and it just kept coming down
Some call it a blizzard, the worst in 20 years
The wind and snow all around must have exposed my fears
Did some kind of panic actually did exist?
The wind, it knocked me off my feet if I tried to resist
Just like a fisherman fishing for his soul
Maybe I'm out there trying to find my way to go
In the streets of Chicago in '99
Was I snowbound or would I ever be found?
The blues came hard to Chicago this day
No one around to play the game
Losing trouble, get out of my way
People out so long in the streets today
So maybe it's time I went down south
Where there ain't no cold snow or whiteout
But blizzards or hurricanes, it occurs to me
No, I can't lose these blues no matter where I be
To be in Chicago in '99
January day, blizzard coming my way
I'm getting older, older by the day
Where the hell my family gone anyway?
And the blues came hard to Chicago this day
Nobody around to play the game
So sad and lonesome in its own white way
People, I'm lost in Chicago today
Must have known something wrong was coming my way
Losing trouble, get out of my way
But so many more dues, so many more dues to pay
