Lyrics
You′re a girl from Chicago
On the road with a show
Not a soul in New Haven
You can say you know
You wish you were a mile
Or so from Michigan Lake
Home with your mother
And a T-bone steak
Then along comes a fella
With a smile like a kid
And he gets your attention
With a timely bid
He says he knows a bistro
Where they give you a break
With French fried potatoes
And a T-bone steak
You are shy and uncertain
But he pleads and you yield
And you don’t have an inkling
That you′re signed and sealed
By merely telling someone
You’d be glad to partake
Of French fried potatoes
And a T-bone steak
That’s the way it happens
That′s the way it happens
That′s the way it happened to me
