{{lyrics|come you sinners, tread low | |||
leave your past behind | |||
for the winners, dead of night | |||
you can stand inside | |||
let your body be hers now | |||
let your soul unwind | |||
illinois, illinois | |||
illinois | |||
if you can see me, hear my voice | |||
within these lake-bound vines | |||
all down the wabash, rushing past | |||
dead drunk and living time | |||
your stories i've forgotten | |||
your tales unkind | |||
illinois, illinois | |||
illinois, illinois | |||
illinois | |||
one day i will leave | |||
someday i will go | |||
i won't come back, no | |||
to illinois, illinois | |||
restless children in our streets | |||
let your love run blind | |||
lay your burdens at our feet | |||
seek what you must find | |||
and every answer that behooves you | |||
with every heart aligned | |||
illinois, illinois | |||
illinois, illinois | |||
illinois | |||
as a jewel in a crown | |||
sits chicago town | |||
shining beacon of a dream | |||
that brought the stars right down | |||
let our skies fill with steel titans | |||
let the dream be ours | |||
illinois, illinois | |||
illinois | |||
one day i will leave | |||
someday i will go | |||
i won't desire soon | |||
of illinois, illinois | |||
come you sinners, tread light | |||
remember from where you came | |||
let your body, high or low | |||
forget her singsong name | |||
it doesn't matter if you love her | |||
just don't leave your shame | |||
in illinois, illinois | |||
illinois, illinois | |||
illinois}} | |||
