The Lyrics
If you lived in the Chicago area, and watched as many sports since you were a kid, please answer the following questions:
Were you there when the Blackhawks won the cup?
Were you there when the Blackhawks won the cup?
Oh!
Sometimes, it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when the Blackhawks won the cup?
Were you there when the Cubs just won a ring?
Were you there when the Cubs just won a ring?
Oh!
Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when the Cubs just won a ring?
Were you there when the Bulls won 6 titles?
Were you there when the Bulls won 6 titles?
Oh!
Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when the Bulls won 6 titles?
Were you there when the Bears won a title?
Were you there when the Bears won a title?
Oh!
Sometimes, I feel like shouting glory, glory, glory
Were you there when the Bears won a title?
Were you there when the Blackhawks won the cup?
Oh!
Sometimes, it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when the Blackhawks won the cup?
Were you there when the Cubs just won a ring?
Were you there when the Cubs just won a ring?
Oh!
Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when the Cubs just won a ring?
Were you there when the Bulls won 6 titles?
Were you there when the Bulls won 6 titles?
Oh!
Sometimes it causes me to tremble, tremble, tremble
Were you there when the Bulls won 6 titles?
Were you there when the Bears won a title?
Were you there when the Bears won a title?
Oh!
Sometimes, I feel like shouting glory, glory, glory
Were you there when the Bears won a title?

Arcade Junkie: some people on this site have been accused of going for quantity over quality, and I think you definitely qualify
I wasn't there in 1908 (Cubs win! Cubs win! Holy cow!) or 1917 (Sox win!) or 1961 (Hawks win!). And while I was watching the Bears and the Bulls, I wasn't THERE in New Orleans in '86, L.A. in '91, Phoenix in '93, Salt Lake in '97 and, of course, Chicago in '92, '96 and '97. Maybe I'll see the Cubs, Sox or Hawks win a title. Right after I flap my arms and fly to the moon.
