Well I woke up in the city
Wrong side of Wacker Driver
And I don't know where I'm heading
But I know I'm still alive
The rain falls in Chicago
And it's cloudy in my head
Cause my soul is on vacation
Till the day they find me dead
Owed a favor to some folks
They put a gone in my right hand
Pulled on down an alley way
And they pointed to a man
He had a beard as black as coal
And eyes as dark as night
But he hadn't paid his toll
So I was there to make it right
Stepped out for a smoke
Caught one right between the eyes
Now he's lying on the pavement
And he's staring at the sky
Now you can beg steal or borrow
But don't think nobody know
Cause when the rain falls in Chicago
You gon' pay for what you owe
Said you gon' pay for what you owe
You gon' pay for what you owe
You gon' pay for what you owe
You gon' pay for what you owe
You ain't from 'round here
Don't you come down here
Thinking it's a game
No I ain't bluffing
You ain't heard nothing
And you ain't seen a goddamn thing
Cause this blood on my hands
Is anybody's but my own
So you better pay in cash
And you better come alone
And don't you waste my time
With a promise you can't keep
Cause I'll lay you in the ground
Where the sinners lay to sleep
Now you can beg steal or borrow
But don't think nobody know
Cause when the rain falls in Chicago
You gon' pay for what you owe
Said you gon' pay for what you owe
You gon' pay for what you owe
You gon' pay for what you owe
You gon' pay for what you owe
