NANCI GRIFFITH lyrics - "The Streets Of Baltimore" (Harlan Howard & Tompall Glaser) I sold the farm to take my woman Where she longed to be We left our kin and all our friends Back there in Tennessee I bought the one way tickets She had often begged me for And they took us to the streets of Baltimore [Bridge:] [1st section:] Well my heart was filled with laughter When I saw those city lights She said the prettiest place on earth Was Baltimore at night [2nd section:] Well a man feels proud to give his woman What she's longing for And I kind of like the Streets of Baltimore I got myself a factory job, I ran an old machine We bought a little cottage In a neighborhood serene But every night when I come home With every muscle sore She would drag me through the Streets of Baltimore [Bridge:] [1st section:] Well, I did my best to bring her back To what she used to be But, I soon learned she loved those bright lights Much more than she loves me [2nd section:] Now I'm goin' back on that same train That brought me here before While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore Yes, my baby walks the streets of Baltimore See more NANCI GRIFFITH lyrics |
