Chicago Lyrics : “Chicago” (originally titled “She Was Loving Me”) is a sleek, captivating contemporary R&B track that highlights the timeless, emotional vocal power of the King of Pop, Michael Jackson. Released posthumously as a standout track on the Xscape album, the song delves into a gripping narrative of secrecy, infidelity, and unexpected heartbreak. It follows a man who meets a captivating woman on a trip to Chicago, only to discover later that she leads a complicated double life. It is an absolute favorite for premium R&B playlists and fans who appreciate Michael’s signature narrative storytelling.
The track’s modern, hard-hitting sonic environment was masterfully re-engineered by elite hitmakers Timbaland and J-Roc, who served as the primary producers. They seamlessly took Michael’s raw, passionate vocal takes from the late 90s and wrapped them in a futuristic, bass-heavy beat packed with crisp percussion and dramatic synths. The compelling story and infectious rhythm were originally written by the brilliant songwriter Cory Rooney. Distributed globally under the prestigious banners of MJJ Music, Epic Records, and Sony Music Entertainment, the track serves as a brilliant bridge between classic MJ passion and cutting-edge modern production.
Chicago Lyrics
Ah, I met her on my way to Chicago
Where she was all alone
And so was I, so I asked her for her name
She smiled and looked at me
I was surprised to see
That a woman like that was really into me
She said she didn’t have no man
Raised the kids the very best she can (She was lovin’ me)
She told me she was all alone
Sad at home, she didn’t have no one (She was wantin’ me)
She said just to give her a page
Fifty-nine was the code she gave (She was lovin’ me)
She’d lied to you, lied to me
‘Cause she was lovin’ me, lovin’ me, yeah
I never woulda thought she was livin’ like that
Her words seemed so sincere
When I held her near, she would tell me how she feels
It felt so real to me, this girl, she had to be
An angel sent from Heaven just for me
She said she didn’t have no man (Ah, ah)
Raised the kids the very best she can (Look, she’s lovin’ me)
She told me she was all alone
Sad at home, she didn’t have no one (She was lovin’ me)
She said just to give her a page
Fifty-nine was the code she gave
She’d lied to you, lied to me
‘Cause she was lovin’ me, lovin’ me, yeah (Look who’s lovin’ me)
She tried to live a double life
Lovin’ me while she was still your wife (She was wantin’ me)
She thought that lovin’ me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school (She was lovin’ me)
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can (She was wantin’ me)
She’d lied to you, lied to me
‘Cause she got a family, family, yeah
Woah-oh-oh, no
Alright
Oh, I’m in love, love
I didn’t know she was already spoken for
‘As I’m not that kind of man
Swear that I would’ve never looked her way
Now I feel so much shame
And all things have to change
You should know that I’m holdin’ her to blame
She said she didn’t have no man
Raised the kids the very best she can (Holdin’ her to blame)
She told me she was all alone
Sad at home, she didn’t have no one (Holdin’ her to blame)
She said just to give her a page
Fifty-nine was the code she gave (Holdin’ her to blame)
She lied to you, lied to me
‘Cause she was lovin’ me, lovin’ me, yeah (Holdin’ her to blame)
She tried to live a double life
Loving me while she was still your wife (Holdin’ her to blame)
She thought that loving me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school (Holdin’ her to blame)
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can (Holdin’ her to blame)
She’d lied to you, lied to me
‘Cause she got a family, family, yeah
She said she didn’t have no man (Ah, ah)
Raised the kids the very best she can (Look, she’s lovin’ me)
She told me she was all alone
Sad at home, she didn’t have no one (She was lovin’ me)
She said just to give her a page
Fifty-nine was the code she gave (She’s with me)
She’d lied to you, lied to me
‘Cause she was lovin’ me, lovin’ me, yeah (Look who’s lovin’ me)
She tried to live a double life
Lovin’ me while she was still your wife (She was wantin’ me)
She thought that lovin’ me was cool
With you at work and the kids at school (She was lovin’ me)
She said that it would never end
Tried to keep me any way she can (She was wantin’ me)
She’d lied to you, lied to me
‘Cause she got a family, family, yeah
