the night chicago died

• paper lace'in bir şarkısıdır. sözleri:
  
  in the heat of a summer night
  in the land of the dollar bill
  when the town of chicago died
  and they talk about it still
  
  when a man named al capone
  tried to make that town his own
  and he called his gang to war
  with the forces of the law
  
  i heard my mama cry
  i heard her pray the night chicago died
  brother what a night it really was
  brother what a fight it really was
  glory be
  
  i heard my mama cry
  i heard her pray the night chicago died
  brother what a night the people saw
  brother what a fight the people saw
  yes indeed
  
  and the sound of the battle rang
  through the streets of the old east side
  'til the last of the hoodlum gang
  had surrendered up or died
  
  there was shouting in the street
  and the sound of running feet
  and i asked someone who said
  bout a hundred cops are dead
  
  i heard my mama cry
  i heard her pray the night chicago died
  brother what a night it really was
  brother what a fight it really was
  glory be!
  
  i heard my mama cry
  i heard her pray the night chicago died
  brother what a night the people saw
  brother what a fight the people saw
  yes indeed
  
  and ther was no sound at all
  but the clock upon the wall
  then the door burst open wide
  and my daddy stepped inside
  and he kissed my mama's face
  and he brushed her tears away
  
  the night chicago died
  the night chicago died
  brother what a night the people saw
  brother what a fight the people saw
  yes indeed
  
  the night chicago died
