Chicago (i/ʃɪˈkɑːɡoʊ/ or /ʃɪˈkɔːɡoʊ/) is a rock band from the city of the same name. They were originally founded as Chicago Transit Authority before shortening their name before their breakout second album. They became known for their use of horns in their songs such as 25 or 6 to 4. The band nearly split following founding member Terry Kaths death but they decided to stay together. They became known for their rock ballads throughout the 80s. The band still tours to this day. more »

Come on down, let's take the "A" train
To take a little ride around the city.
Brooklyn or Broadway train
You'll see that old New York is kind of pretty.
Take your baby subway ridin'
That's where romance may be hidin' (let's take a ride)
Take, you should take the "A" train
To get to sugar hill way up in Harlem.
Come on baby, climb aboard the "A" train
That's the way to get to sugar hill in Harlem
And if you get aboard the "A" train
You'll get to sugar hill and in a hurry.
Listen here, listen to the train a comin'
Hear the rails a hummin' (let's take a ride)
Climb aboard, climb aboard the "a" train
To take a little ride around the city.
(All aboard...)
