Here’s Joe, from Chicago, steppin down LakeShore Drive
Here’s Joe, from Chicago, I’ll give him my high-five
He’s got a plan, oh yeah, he’s our guy for alderman
Oh Joe, you gotta know, he’ll really get things done
Chorus
From the cool and blue Lake Michigan, to the taqueria up on Clark
We’ll get off the L at Argyle Street and stroll through Margate Park
Here’s Joe, from Chicago, steppin down DuSable Drive
Here’s Joe, from Chicago, I’ll give him my high-five
He’s got a plan, oh yeah, he’s our guy for alderman
Oh Joe, you gotta know, he’ll really get things done
