Chicago, nothing here for me
You got to set me free, Chicago
Chicago, ain't a home for a girl alone
Chicago

There ain't one soul in this town that I ever found
Who cares if I live or if I die
One of these days I'm gonna pack up my bags
Put a smile on my face and say goodbye

Say goodbye to Chicago
Chicago, got no hold on me
You gotta set me free, Chicago
Chicago, streets are cold
Chill me to my very soul

I'm gonna go somewhere where people aren't so scared
To show that they care
And they're likely to bе kind
I'm gonna erase evеry memory of this place

Get it out of my mind
Leave it behind
Chicago
Lord, how I yearn to be able to turn
And not to find somebody waitin' to shoot me down

It's just more than I can take
Makin' a break from this town, I won't hang around
Chicago, ain't a home for a girl alone
Chicago, ain't a home for a girl alone
Chicago, Chicago

Kiki Dee

Pauline Matthews better known as Kiki Dee, is an English singer.

She kicked around Britain as a white soul singer for the better part of the late ‘60s and early '70s – even becoming the first British Caucasian signed to Motown – before hooking up with Elton John, who signed her to his Rocket Records label and produced her first notable hit, “I’ve Got the Music in Me.”

In 1976, at which time John was the biggest pop star in the world, he wrote and duetted with Dee on the single “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart,” which promptly topped the charts all over the world. It did not, however, make Dee a long-term star, though she scored a couple of subsequent hits in England and turned to the stage with some success, especially by starring in Blood Brothers in the West End.
