Randy newman<br><br>Beat-up little seagull<br>On a marble stair<br>Tryin' to find the ocean<br>Lookin' everywhere<br><br>Hard times in the city<br>In a hard town by the sea<br>Ain't nowhere to run to<br>There ain't nothin' here for free<br><br>Hooker on the corner<br>Waitin' for a train<br>Drunk lyin' on the sidewalk<br>Sleepin' in the rain<br><br>And they hide their faces<br>And they hide their eyes<br>'cause the city's dyin'<br>And they don't know why<br><br>Oh, baltimore<br>Man, it's hard just to live<br>Oh, baltimore<br>Man, it's hard just to live, just to live<br><br>Get my sister sandy<br>And my little brother ray<br>Buy a big old wagon<br>Gonna haul us all away<br><br>Livin' in the country<br>Where the mountain's high<br>Never comin' back here<br>'til the day I die<br><br>Oh, baltimore<br>Man, it's hard just to live<br>Oh, baltimore<br>Man, it's hard just to live, just to live
