AmDm Am

The streetlamps are on in Chicago tonight,

DmAnd lCovers a'gazin' at stars;

DmAm DmAm

The stores are all closin', and Daley is dozin',

And Dmthe Emfat man is counting the cars...

And there's moAmre cars than pDmlaces to Amput 'em, he says,

But IDm've got room for them aCll;

DmSo 'Amround Dm'em up bAmoys, 'cause I want some more toys,

In the lDmot by the grocery stEmore...

Chorus. To Amme, Emway, hDmey, tow Amthem away,

The LDmincoln Park Pirates are wCe,

Dm>FroAmm WilmeDmtte Amto Gary, there's nothin' so hairy

And we aDmlways collect our fEmee!

So Amit's Emway, hDmey, tow Am'em away,

We pDmlunder the streets of your Ctown,

Dm Am DmAm

Be it Edsel or Chevy, there's no car too heavy,

And nEmo one Amcan make us shut down.

We break into cars when we gotta,

With hammer and pickaxe and saw;

And they said this garage had no license;

But little care I for the law!

Our drivers are friendly and courteous;

Their good manners you always will get;

'Cause they all are recent graduates

Of the charm school in Joliet.

To me, way, hey, tow them away,

The Lincoln Park Pirates are we,

>From Wilmette to Gary, there's nothin' so hairy

And we always collect our fee!

So it's way, hey, tow 'em away,

We plunder the streets of your town,

Be it Edsel or Chevy, there's no car too heavy,

And no one can make us shut down.

And when all the cars are collected,

And all of their fenders are ruined,

Then I'll tow all the boats in Belmont Harbor

To the Lincoln Park Lagoon;

And when I've collected the ransom,

And sunk all the ones that won't yield;

I'll tow all the planes that are blocking the runways

At Midway, O'Hare, and Meigs Field!

To me, way, hey, tow them away,

The Lincoln Park Pirates are we,

>From Wilmette to Gary, there's nothin' so hairy

And we always collect our fee!

So it's way, hey, tow 'em away,

Now citizens, gather around,

And I think it's enough, let's call his bluff,

Let's throw the bum out of town!
