(Harlan Howard)      He said there's no future back here in these hills   His mind grew so restless he couldn't be still   Though I knew I might lose him and all I dreamed of   Still I send my baby to Chicago with love.      Big city don't hurt him, don't change him I pray   Keep him the same sweet boy as when he went away   He'll never know how often I pray to God above   To send down his blessings to Chicago with love.      Well, I just got his first letter   He's got a job and things are looking fine   He keeps sorry he didn't write me before   But he just didn't have a time.      He says I've got a lotta new friends now honey   The Chicago sure is a swinging place   And by the way I just got married   And I'll be bringing in home with me one of these days.      Big city don't hurt him, don't change him I pray   Keep him the same sweet boy as when he went away   He'll never know how often I pray to God above   To send down his blessings to Chicago with love.      Well, I just got his first letter   He's got a job and things are looking fine   He keeps sorry he didn't write me before   But he just didn't have a time...
