Streets Of Baltimore (Live)

Tompall glaser and harland howard

Well I sold the farm and took my woman where she wanted to be

We left our friends and all our kin back there in tennessee

And I bought the one way tickets she'd often begged me for

And they took us to the streets of baltimore

Well her heart was filled with gladness when I saw those city lights

She said the prettiest place on earth was baltimore at night

Well the man feels proud to give his woman what she's longin' for

And I kinda like the streets of baltimore

Well I got myself a factory job I ran an old machine

And I bought a little cottage in a neighborhood serene

Yes and every night when I came home with every muscle sore

She'd drag me through the streets of baltimore

Well I tried 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

So I'm goin' back on that same train that brought me here before

While my baby walks the streets of baltimore
