Bernadette Peters
Chico’s Girl
Chico wears a jacket
That says "rebels" on the back
His neighborhood's a jungle
So he travels with the pack

When folks say he's bad
Like they always do
I get so mad
'Cause I know it really ain't true

(And I should know 'cause I'm Chico's girl)

Chico learned to come on
So he don't get pushed around
'Cause he grew up the hard way
In the toughest part of town

Now he tries to show
He's tough as can be
But it ain't so
And nobody knows it but me

No one knows the tender side
Chico hides from thе world
A side that he shows just to me
'causе I'm Chico's girl
Now he tries to show
He's tough as can be
But it ain't so
And nobody knows it but me

No one knows the tender side
Chico hides from the world
A side that he shows just to Chico's girl

Chico wears a jacket
That says "rebels" on the back
His neighborhood's a jungle
So he travels with the pack

Chico learned to come on
So he don't get pushed around
'Cause he grew up the hard way
In the toughest part of town

He grew up the hard way
(Chico)
