TONIGHT IN CHICAGO by ANONYMOUS

First Line: "IT'S A SITTING-PRETTY, WINDY-CITY KIND OF A PLACE"
Last Line: CANDLELIGHT AND SPOTLIGHT / KIND OF A PLACE
Subject(s): CHICAGO;

It's a sitting-pretty, windy-city kind of a place.
It's a dine-au-chateau, lake-shore-below,
Kind of place.
It's the Loop and the Mart, a great city's heart;
It's a quiet-and-gentle, elegantal, Continental
Kind of place.
A sprawl-in, sit-tall-in kind of a place.
A quiet lair, a want-to-be-there, a welcome face
Kind of place.
It's a tall-one-all-tinkly, a smile-all-wrinkly.
It's a wonderful food, wonderful mood,
Kind of place.
It's excitement and fun, adventure begun, a
Candlelight and a spotlight
Kind of place.
