Well I sold the farm to take my woman where she used to be
We left our kin and all our friends back there in TennesseeAnd I bought those one way tickets she had often begged me for
And they took us to the streets of BaltimoreWell her heart was filled with gladness when she saw those city lights
She said the prettiest place on earth was Baltimore at night
Well a man feels proud to give his woman what she's longing for
And I kinda liked the streets of Baltimorehen I got myself a factory job, I ran an old machine
And I bought a little cottage in a neighborhood serene
And every night when I'd come home with every muscle soreShe'd drag me through the streets of BaltimoreWell I did my best to bring her back to what she used to be
Then I soon learned she loved those bright lights more than she loved me
Now I'm a going back on that same train that brought me here before
While my baby walks the streets of BaltimoreWhile my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
