Chicago

[Verse]
Jenny
Jenny
You know I'm going away
And you know my woman's here
Please don't you stray
Watch over her
You can run amok and play
Your whole life through
And you can chase the cats around
Because she loves that too
Then if someone comes to cause her harm
You will protect her true
Oh Jenny
Jenny
Jenny
You got her while I'm gone
Time moves so slow
For someone who's alone
So comfort her
If she's feeling low
You gotta be a card
And If she's fast asleep
Don't you sleep too hard
If someone comes to cause her harm
You gotta gun them down
Oh Jenny
Now maybe
It's gonna be alright
Won't have to fight
Won't have to fight
But then again
So sad but true
There's always someone waiting
Just to shit on you
And if she's feeling low
You gotta be a card
If she's fast asleep
Don't you sleep too hard
Because if someone comes to cause her harm
You gotta gun them down
Oh Jenny
Now maybe
It's gonna be alright
You won't have to fight
Never have to fight
But then again
You know it's sad but true
There's always someone waiting
Just to shit on you

Chicago is a rock band hailing from the Illinois city of the same name. With its multitude of certified gold and platinum hits, the band has had enough longevity to last for over fifty years.

Chicago was formed on February 15, 1967, between keyboardist/singer Robert Lamm, trumpeter Lee Loughnane, saxophonist Walter Parazaider, drummer Danny Seraphine, guitarist Terry Kath, and trombonist James Pankow. The group called themselves “The Big Thing,” and played Top 40 hits in nightclubs in Chicago. In 1968, the band relocated to Los Angles, and changed their name to Chicago Transit Authority. They gained massive amounts of exposure to famous musicians of the time by regularly playing at the Whiskey A Go Go nightclub. In 1969, they released a self-titled album which peaked at No. 17 on the Billboard Hot 200 chart. The next year, the band shortened their name to “Chicago” to avoid a lawsuit from the actual company of the same name.

The band has released a plethora of albums, most of them titled Chicago enumerated with Roman numerals. The band changed its sound in the late 70s and 80s following the death of Terry Kath. Since then, the band has still carried on a legacy for the decades following, but has slowed the release of original music to a trickle.
