Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Ain't had no fun

All the time, jacking around

Ain't had no fun

Messing my mind, I kick it around

[Chorus]

But if it's all right with you

And if it's all right, yes, I will

Aw, c'mon, babe, go 'head

To the kill

[Instrumental]

I ain't no Kid Chicago

I ain't no Al Capone

But there's a windy city

In my bedroom alone

[Verse 2]

I said I don't live in Chicago

I don't know no Al Capone

That bitch took my money and she went to Chicago

If I ain't already enough, sick and alone

[Chorus]

But if it's all right with you

And if it's all right, yes, I will

Aw, c'mon, babe, go 'head

To the kill

[Instrumental]

Ain't had no fun

Jack, jack, jack, jack, jacking around

Ain't had no fun, where's it at?

It's down, down, it's downtown

[Chorus]

But if it's all right with you

And if it's all right, yes, I will

Say it now, it's all right with you

And if it's all right, yes, I will

And if it's all right with you

And if it's all right, yes, I will

And if it's all right with you

And if it's all right, yes, I will

Aw, c'mon, babe, go 'head

To the kill
