"Born In Chicago" lyrics - STEPHEN STILLS

I was born in Chicago in 19 and 41
I was born in Chicago in 19 and 41
Well, my father told me
"Son, you better get a gun"

Well, my first friend went down
When I was 17 years of age
Well, my first friend went down
When I was 17 years of age
Well, there's one thing I can say about that boy
He gotta pray

Well, now rules are alright
If there's somebody left to play
Well, now rules are alright
If there's somebody left to play
All my friends are going down
And thing's will never be the same

Well, now rules are alright
If there's somebody left to play
Well, now rules are alright
If there's somebody left to play
All my friends are going down
And thing's will never be the same

I was born in Chicago in 19 and 41
I was born in Chicago in 19 and 41
Well, my father told me
"Son, you better get a gun"

Born in Chicago, born in Chicago, born in Chicago
Born in Chicago, born in Chicago, born in Chicago
All my friends are going down
And thing's will never be the same
