"Baltimore"


                       
Well, I sold my farm to take my woman
                   
Where she longed to be
               
We left our kin and all our friends
                   
Back there in Tennessee
                      
I bought those one-way tickets
                          
That she'd often begged me for
                                   
They took us to the streets of Baltimore

           
Her heart was filled with gladness
                      
Just to see those city lights
            
She swore the prettiest place on earth
                 
Was Baltimore at night
                    
A man feels proud to give his woman
                  
What she's longing for
                                     
And I kinda liked the streets of Baltimore

              
I got myself a factory job
              
I ran an old machine
       
I bought a little cottage
                   
In a neighborhood serene
                    
And every night when I'd come home
                 
With every muscle sore
                                         
She'd drag me through the streets of Baltimore

   
I did my best to bring her back
                    
To where she used to be
     
But I soon learned she loved those bright lights
                    
More than she loved me
                      
So I'm a-going back on that same train
                      
That brought me here before
                                       
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
                                      
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
