	The Windy City calls as slinky slide guitar floats above this Chicago-style shuffle while Red tells you about the south and west side clubs and Chicago legends that brought him to the blues. The steady-rollin' beat chugs and churns and harmony vocals round out the hypnotic chorus on this modern urban blues. You'll see yourself cruising up Belmont and Diversy streets as the names of famous clubs painted on the sides of funky storefronts fly by. Take an adventure up and down the famous streets of Chigago, Illinois. "OK Red! (Sam laughs) Don't be playin' that when I'm so far from home" - Sam Lay (Paul Butterfield Blues Band) Tallahassee FL 1996

	Lyrics BIG CITY BLUES copyright 1992 Lightning Red publishing - Lightning Red Music, BMI Take me to Chicago, back to Belmont Avenue. I wanna feel them big city blues. Take me down to Wabash to hear a jammin' Buddy Guy. This Eisenhower 'xpressway is movin' slow tonight. Take me to Teresas or a Newtown club or two. Calumet or Rush street, or a Westside barbecue. The Southside is a rough side but the Northside's got the blues. Irving and Polaski...Diversy welcomes you. Ev'rybody wondrin' just where I learned the blues `cause when I went to Texas took some good ol' tunes I learned from Muddy Waters, Otis Rush and Sammy Lay. My heart is in Chicago but my body can't stay. Big City Blues. You just can't lose those Big City Blues. They're the ones you can use, those Big City Blues, It ain't no use to refuse `cause once you got `em they always follow you. Take me to Chicago, back to Belmont Avenue. I wanna feel them big city blues. Take me down to Wabash to hear a jammin' Buddy Guy. This Eisenhower 'xpressway is movin slow tonight. Big City Blues. You just can't lose those Big City Blues. They're the ones you can use, those Big City Blues, It ain't no use to refuse `cause once you got ` they're gonna follow you.
