Daniel O'Donnell - The Streets Of Baltimore lyrics

rate me

I sold my farm to take my woman

Where she longed to be

I left my kin and my friends

Back there in Tennssee.

I bought the oneway tickets

She had often begged me for

And thay took us to

The streets of Baltimore.

Her heart was filled with laughter

When she saw those city lights

She said the prettiest place

On earth is Baltimore at night.

A man feels proud to give

His woman what she's longing for

And I tried of liked

The streets of Baltimore.

I got myself a factory job

I ran an old machine

I bought her this cottage

In a neighborhood serene.

And every night when I came home

With every muscle sore

She would drag me through

The streets of Baltimore.

Well, I tried hard to bring her back

To where she used to be

But I soon learned she loved

Those bright lights more than me.

Well, I'm a going 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...
