Chicago I Can't Do It Alone Lyrics

[Announcer]
Ladies and gentlemen
Miss Velma Kelly in an act of desperation

[Velma]
My sister and I had an act that couldn't flop
My sister and I were headed straight for the top
My sister and I earned a thou a week at least
Oh yeah
But my sister is now unfortunately deceased
I know it's sad of course but a fact is still a fact
And now all that remains is the remains
Of a perfect double act

[Velma]
Watch this
Well you have to imagine it with two people
It's swell with two people

First I'd
Then she'd
Then we'd
But I can't do it alone

Then she'd
Then I'd
Then we'd
But I can't do it alone

She'd say "What's your sister like?"
I'd say "Men"
She'd say "You're the cat's meow"
And we'd wow the crowd again

When she'd go
I'd go
We'd go

Then those ding-dong daddies started a roar
Whistled stomped stamped on the floor
Yelling screaming begging for more
And we'd say
"Ok fellas keep your socks up
Cause you ain't seen nothing yet"

But I simply cannot do it alone

[Velma]
So what do you think, huh?
Come on you can say

[Roxie]
Pft

[Velma]
I know you're right
The first part's s___
But the second part?
The second part is really nifty
Ok

[Velma]
She'd go
I'd go
We'd go
And then those two-bit Johnnys did it up brown
To cheer the best attraction in town
They nearly tore the balcony down
And we'd say
"Ok boys we're going home
But before we go, here's a few more parting shots"
And this this we did in perfect unison

Now you see me going through it
You may think there's nothing to it
But I simply cannot do it alone
