Joan Baez - The Lady Came From Baltimore lyrics

rate me

the lady cam from Baltimore

all she wore was lace

she didn't know that I was poor

she never saw my face

I was sent to steal her money

take her rings and run

but I fell in love with the lady

came away with none

the lady's name was Suzanne Moore

her daddy read her law

she didn't know that I was poor

livin' outside the law

I was sent to steal her money

take her rings and run

but I fell in love with the lady

came away with none

her daddy said I was a thief

and didn't have her love(?)

but I (that?) was Suzanne's true belief

I married her for love (?)

I was sent to steal her money

take her rings and run

but I fell in love with the lady

came away with none

the way she lived in ?

to keep the robbers out

she never stop to think it all

that's what I'm about

I was sent to steal her money

take her rings and run

but I fell in love with the lady

came away with none
