Cloudy in the East, looks like rain,

I spent all my money on the subway train,

Went down to the South, heard some jazz,

Fished a lazy river, caught some big crawdads-

Headed to the coast, Golden Gate,

I had a great time ’til it began to shake-

In San Francisco; in San Francisco;

                        C                 C
Climbed a snowy mountain; skied back down,

I saw the elkhorn arches in the center of town-

In Jackson Hole, in Jackson Hole,

Went to Detroit, it was fine,

I watched the cars move off the assembly line-

I looped the loop, I rocked and reeled,

I thought the Cubs played ball in Marshall Field,

   F                  C
In the Windy City, in the Windy City,

   G                   F                      C

Went a little south, St. Louis (Loo-ee)

A piece of Missouri on the Mississippi

   F                 C
In old St. Louis, in old St. Louis,

   G                  F                      C
In old St. Louis, you really gotta know your way.
