You faith and your belief in our innocence.
Yes, it was letters, telegrams, and words of encouragement
That helped see us through this terrible ordeal of ours.
You know, a lot of people has lost faith in america.
But we are the living examples of what a wonderful country this is.
So we'd just like to say thank you and God bless you.
God bless you.
Thank you and God bless you
God be with you. no,
God walk with you always. I'm no one's wife
God bless you. but, oh,

And all that jazz

The Finale song from the musical Chicago, performed by Walter Matthau, Barbra Streisand, Michael Crawford, and company, is a closing statement of gratitude and belief in the American justice system. The lyrics mainly express the appreciation towards the people who had faith and believed in Roxie and the singer's innocence during their trial. Letters, telegrams, and words of encouragement helped them through the terrible ordeal of the trial. The song acknowledges the fact that a lot of people have lost faith in the American justice system and in the principles that America stands for. However, the singer and Roxie's case are a living example of what a wonderful country America is, implying that justice eventually prevailed.
The song ends with multiple repetitions of "Thank you, God bless you," accompanied by the phrase, "God be with you, no, God walk with you always." The phrase is a way of extending blessings to the listeners and is especially meaningful for the performers who struggled to prove their innocence in the musical's story. The final line, "And all that jazz," is a nod to the musical's name Chicago, which is famous for its jazz music scene. The phrase is a way of encapsulating and summarizing the whole story and its themes of fame, corruption, and murder, all depicted in a jazz-style musical.
