Chicago (Original Version)Michael Jackson

Songwriter: Cory Rooney

Producer: Michael Jackson Cory Rooney

[Verse 1]
I met her on my way to Chicago
Where she was all alone
And so was I so I asked her for her name
She smiled and looked at me
I was surprised to see
That a woman like that was really into me

[Chorus 1]
She said she didn’t have no man
Raised the kids the very best she can
(she was lovin' me)
She told me she was all alone
Said at home she didn’t have no phone
(she was wantin' me)
She said just to give her a page
Fifty nine was the code she gave
(she was lovin' me)
She'd lie to you, lie to me
'Cause she was lovin' me, lovin' me, yeah

[Verse 2]
I never would have thought
She was livin' like that
Her words seemed so sincere
And when I held her near
She would tell me how she feels
It felt so real to me
This girl she had to be
An angel sent from Heaven just for me

[Chorus 2]
She said she didn’t have no man
Raised the kids the very best she can
(she's lovin' me)
She told me she was all alone
Said at home she didn’t have no phone
(look who's lovin' me)
She said just to give her a page
Fifty nine was the code she gave
(she's lovin' me)
She'd lie to you, lie to me
'Cause she was lovin' me, lovin' me yeah
(look who's lovin' me)

She tried to live a double life
Lovin' me but she was still your wife
(she's wantin' me)
She thought that lovin' me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school
(she was lovin' me)
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can
(she was wantin' me)
She'd lie to you, lie to me
'Cause she had a family, family, yeah

Why.. oooh ooooh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
I’m in love

[Verse 3]
I didn’t know she was already spoken for
‘Cause I’m not that kind of man
I swear that I would've never looked her way
Now I feel so much shame
And all things have to change
You should know that
I’m holdin' her to blame

[Chorus 2]
She said she didn’t have no man
Raised the kids the very best she can
(holdin' her to blame)
She told me she was all alone
Said at home she didn’t have no phone
(holdin' her to blame)
She said just to give her a page
Fifty nine was the code she gave
(Holding her to blame)
She'd lie to you, lie to me
'Cause she was lovin' me, lovin' me, yeah
(holdin' her to blame)

She tried to live a double life
Lovin' me but she was still your wife
(holding her to blame)
She thought that lovin' me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can
She'd lie to you, lie to me
'Cause she got a family, family, yeah

Michael Jackson

Michael Jackson was born on August 29, 1958, in Gary, Indiana. Jackson began his career when he was seven years old as the lead singer of the Jackson 5, breaking into stardom in 1969 after signing into Motown. The Jackson 5’s first four singles all peaked at number one on the Billboard 100, and soon after Michael pursued a solo career.

His breakthrough fifth album, 1979’s Off The Wall produced four top ten hits (including “Don’t Stop ‘Til You Get Enough”) and sold 20 million copies, establishing him as a household name. The album was followed with 1982’s Thriller, which became the best selling album of all time, and was the first album to feature seven top 10 singles, including “Billie Jean” and “Beat It.”

In 1985, Michael contributed to the collaboration single “We Are The World”, which remains one of the best-selling singles of all time and raised nearly $65 million for famine relief.
