Chicago Chicago ChicagoQuand je vais revoir mon vieux
grand-mère à ChicagoIl sort ses histoires son révolver
son borsalinoEt deux verres sur une table et
mi-vrai mi-fableIl me raconte la prohibition{Refrain:}Alors moi je
me vois près de lui à ChicagoJouant toute
la nuit au casinoAlors moi je me vois
près de lui à ChicagoTout le monde m'appelle
Frankie BorsalinoChicago Chicago ChicagoDans un vieux sous-sol près
du palais il se cachaitFabriquait l'alcool qu'il revendait
au juge de paixUn peu hors la loi
un rien de maffiaVoilà pourquoi il est toujours
là{au Refrain}En mille neuf cent vingt quand il
a quitté le paysC'est tellement le vin qu'il
fabriquait était trahiA peine débarqué sans savoir parlerC'est
de whisky qu'il s'est occupé{au Refrain}Chicago Chicago Chicago
