Oscar Brand
I Used to Work in Chicago
[Chorus]
I used to work in Chicago
At a department store
I used to work in Chicago
I did, but I don't no more
[Verse 1]
A lady came up for a girdle
I asked her what kind she wished
"Rubber" she said
Rub her, I did
I’ll never go there anymore
[Chorus]
I used to work in Chicago
At a department store
I used to work in Chicago
I did, but I don't no more
[Verse 2]
A lady came up to the hat shop
I asked her what kind she wished
"Felt" she said
Felt her I did
I'll never go there anymore
[Chorus]
I used to work in Chicago
At a dеpartment store
I used to work in Chicago
I did, but I don’t no morе
[Verse 3]
A lady came up for a house dress
I asked her what kind she wished
"Jumper" said she
So jump her I did
I'll never go there anymore
[Chorus]
I used to work in Chicago
At a department store
I used to work in Chicago
I did, but I don't no more
[Verse 4]
A lady came up for some pastry
I asked her what kind she wished
"Layer" she said
Lay her I did
I'll never work there anymore
[Chorus]
I used to work in Chicago
At a department store
I used to work in Chicago
I did, but I don't no more
[Verse 5]
A lady came up for a sleeper
I asked her which berth she wished
"Upper" she said
Up her I went
I'll never go there anymore
[Chorus]
I used to work in Chicago
At a department store
I used to work in Chicago
I did, but I don't no more
[Verse 6]
A lady came up for a ticket
I says, "Where do you wanna go?"
"Banger" she said
Bang her I did
I'll never go there anymore
[Outro]
I’ll never go there anymore
