[00:18.34]Daddy was a cop
[00:19.96]on the east side of Chicago
[00:22.66]Back in the U.S.A.
[00:24.60]back in the bad old days
[00:27.79]In the heat of a summer night
[00:32.34]In the land of the dollar bill
[00:36.93]When the town of Chicago died
[00:41.47]And they talk about it still
[00:43.79]When a man named Al Capone
[00:45.74]Tried to make that town his own
[00:48.06]And he called his gang to war
[00:50.31]With the forces of the law
[00:52.15]I heard my mama cry
[00:55.46]I heard her pray the night Chicago died
[01:01.66]Brother what a night it really was
[01:03.85]Brother what a fight it really was
[01:06.27]Glory be!
[01:08.86]I heard my mama cry
[01:12.21]I heard her pray the night Chicago died
[01:18.28]Brother what a night the people saw
[01:20.52]Brother what a fight the people saw
[01:23.12]Yes indeed!
[01:26.17]And the sound of the battle rang
[01:30.56]Through the streets of the old east side
[01:35.05]'Til the last of the hoodlum gang
[01:39.58]Had surrendered up or died
[01:41.91]There was shouting in the street
[01:44.11]And the sound of running feet
[01:46.46]And I asked someone who said
[01:48.55]"'Bout a hundred cops are dead!"
[01:50.37]I heard my mama cry
[01:54.00]I heard her pray the night Chicago died
[02:00.15]Brother what a night it really was
[02:02.09]Brother what a fight it really was
[02:04.30]Glory be!
[02:07.01]I heard my mama cry
[02:10.48]I heard her pray the night Chicago died
[02:16.67]Brother what a night the people saw
[02:18.80]Brother what a fight the people saw
[02:20.92]Yes indeed!
[02:23.95]And there was no sound at all
[02:28.56]But the clock upon the wall
[02:30.92]Then the door burst open wide
[02:35.74]And my daddy stepped inside
[02:37.80]And he kissed my mama's face
[02:39.88]And he brushed her tears away
[02:41.66]The night Chicago died
[02:45.00](Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na)
[02:48.60]The night Chicago died
[02:51.12]Brother what a night the people saw
[02:53.50]Brother what a fight the people saw
[02:55.58]Yes indeed!
[02:58.26]The night Chicago died
[03:01.71](Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na)
[03:05.25]The night Chicago died
[03:07.76]Brother what a night it really was
[03:09.91]Brother what a fight it really was
[03:12.23]Glory be!
[03:15.51]The night Chicago died
[03:18.36](Na-na na, na-na-na, na-na-na)
[03:21.64]The night Chicago died
[03:24.52]Brother what a night the people saw
[03:26.79]Brother what a fight the people saw
[03:29.18]Yes indeed!
