Score of I used to work in Chicago

This song came to mind during a discussion about rugby songs with my friend Andy Corp in Australia and a proud member of the Ozzie Quins club where this song used to be sung. Andy remembered many more verses than I could so I jotted them down and added this page to the collection on our arrival in New Zealand.


I used to work in Chicago,
In a department store,
I used to work in Chicago,
I did but don't no more.


A lady came in for a carpet,
I said what kind do you wish?
Shag she said, shag her I did,
I'll never go there any more.

A lady came in for more carpet,
Carpet from the store.
Carpet she wanted, felt she got,
I'll never go there any more,

A lady came in for more carpet,
Carpet from the store.
Carpet she wanted, laid she got,
I'll never go there any more.

A lady came in for some crayfish,
Crayfish from the store.
Crayfish she wanted, crabs she got she got,
I'll never go there any more.

A lady came in for some medicine,
Medicine from the store.
Medicine she wanted, a dose she got,
I'll never go there any more.

A lady came in for some applause,
Applause from the store.
Applause she wanted, the clap she got,
I'll never go there any more.

A lady came in for more Sailors,
Sailors from the store.
Sailors she wanted, semen she got,
I'll never go there any more.

A lady came in for some help,
Help from the store.
Help she wanted, aids she got,
I'll never go there any more.
