Lyrics

I Used to Work in Chicago

I used to work in Chicago,
In an old department store,
I used to work in Chicago,
I don't work there any more.

A woman came in for some meat,
Some meat from the store,
Some meat she wanted,
porked she got
I don't work there any more

glazed doughnut she wanted. cream filled she got
brass taps she wanted, golden shower she got
Beefeater Gin she wanted, eat her I did
quick service she wanted, quickly serviced she got
ground coffee she wanted, grind her I did
jumper she wanted, jump her I did
liquor she wanted, lick her I did
elevator she wanted, my shaft she got
carpet she wanted, deep shag she got
hammer she wanted, nailed she got
gun she wanted, banged she got
watering can she wanted, hosed she got
floppy disk she wanted, hard drive she got
velvet she wanted, felt she got
liquor she wanted, lick her I did
bolts she wanted, my nuts she got
sailors she wanted, semen she got
ham she wanted, porked she got
cigarette she wanted, my pipe she got
pipe she wanted, hosed she got
Plumber she wanted, pipes cleaned she got
butter she wante, spread she got
seafood she wanted, crabs she got
carpet she wanted, shag she got
nail she wanted, screw she got
fishing rod she wanted, my pole she got
helicopter she wanted, my chopper she got
translator she wanted, cunning linguist she got
KitKat she wanted, four fingers she got
Irish airlilne ticket from the store, Air Lingus she wanted, cunnilingus she got
a hand she wanted, fisted she got
diamond choker she wanted, pearl necklace she got
lobster thermidor she wanted, creamed clam she got
German method of coal  extraction she wanted, mine shaft she got
duck she wanted, I misunderstood
Open cast coal mine she wanted, deep shaft she got
A ruler she wanted, 12 inches she got
Some lettuce she wanted, head she got!
An O Henry she wanted, Mr. Big she got!
A Big Mac she wanted, a Whopper she got
A screen door she wanted, slammed she got!
Some fireworks she wanted, banged she got!
A Big Mac she wanted, super-sized she got!
Some Pringles she wanted, the pop she got!
Some tile she wanted, laid she got!
A vacuum she wanted, sucked she got!
Some dinner she wanted, ate out she got!
A lollipop she wanted, licked she got!
Some Shakespeare she wanted, Dickens she got!
piano she wanted, my organ she got
chips she wanted, lays she got
racoon she wanted, my beaver she got
carpet she wanted, rugburn she got
muscle car she wanted, my hot rod she got
pickle she wanted, my cucumber she got
a hat she wanted, my helmet she got.
a damp cat she wanted, wet pussy she got.
chair leg she wanted, table ends she got.
turkey she wanted, gobbles she got.
Barbecue she wanted, spit roast she got
Fabric she wanted, felt she got
Cake from the store, layer she wanted, lay her I did
Truck she wanted, Rammed she got
tire she wanted, rimmed she got
basketball she wanted, hooped she got
Sea Cat she wanted, wet pussy she got
Sprite she wanted, 7-Up she got
Flag she wanted, jolly roger she got
Ford she wanted, probe she got


An older variation:

I used to work in Chicago
In a department store.
I worked in the poultry department
I did but I don't anymore.
A lady came in for some poultry one day.
"What will you have", I said.
"Goose", she said, Goose she got.
I'll never work there any more.
