As I walked out in the streets of Chicago
As I walked out in Chicago one day
I spied a young boy/girl wrapped all in white linen
Wrapped in white linen as cold as the clay
Oh beat their drum slowly and play their horn lowly
Sing the dead march as you carry them away.
Acknowledgement respectfully to God’s perished children;
God; bless them, bring them home, have mercy on their souls.
Just as I pray you will have mercy on me.
Note: I am not from nor am I at Chicago.

It is Carney-val show time. The Rings Master may be a skilled host, director and entertainer performing acrobatics. Bring into the Midway tent the rings of clowns, magicians, flying trapeze artists, plus all the elephants, lions and monkeys, and snakes that will perform for everyone's entertainment. Aside: snails are a performance measuring device not a food delicacy.
Enjoy the show.
