Though your brother's bound and gagged
And they've chained him to a chair
Won't you please come to chicago

Just to sing

In a land that's known as freedom

How can such a thing be fair
Won't you please come to chicago
For the help that we can bring


We can change the world
Rearrange the world

It's dying to get better

Politicians sit yourselves down

There's nothing for you here
Won't you please come to chicago
For a ride


Don't ask jack to help you
'cause he'll turn the other ear

Won't you please come to chicago
Or else join the other side


We can change the world
Re arrange the world


It's dying if you believe in justice
It's dying and if you believe in freedom
It's dying let a man live his own life

It's dying rules and regulations who needs them
Oh throw them out the door


Somehow people must be free
I hope the day comes soon
Won't you please come to chicago

Show your face

From the bottom of the ocean

To the mountains on the moon
Won't you please come to chicago
No one else can take your place


Yes we can change the world
Re arrange the world


It's dying if you believe in justice
It's dying and if you believe in freedom

It's dying let a man live his own life
It's dying rules and regulations who needs them
Throw them out the door
