Just Blew in from Windy City - Doris Day

I just blew in from the windy city

The windy city is mighty purty

But they ain’t got what we got

No, sirree

They’ve got shacks up to seven stories

Never see any morning glories

But a step from our doorway

We got 'em for free

They’ve got those minstrel shows

Purty ladies in the big chapeaus

Private lawns, public parks

For the sake of civic virtue

They’ve got fountains there that squirt you

I just blew in from the windy city

The windy city is mighty purty

But they ain’t got what we got

I’m tellin' ya, boys

We got more life in Deadwood City

Than in all of Illinois

You should-a seen me a-winder shoppin'

A-winder shoppin' with eyes a-poppin'

At the sights that you see there, yes sirree

Press a bell and a moment later

Up you go in an elevator

Just as fast as a polecat a-climbin' a tree

I heard claim hundreds came

To a thing they call a baseball game

Cigar stores, revolving doors

They’ve got new inventions coming

'Stead of outdoor, indoor plumbing

I just blew in from the windy city

The windy city is mighty purty

But they ain’t got what we got

I’m tellin' ya, boys

I ain’t a-swappin' half of Deadwood

For the whole of Illinois
