Streets Of Baltimore
Bobby Bare
[E]I sold the farm to t[A]ake my wo[E]man where she longed to [A]be
We l[B]eft our kin and all our friends back th[E]ere in Tennessee
I bought those one way ti[A]ckets she had of[E]ten begged me f[A]or
And they t[B]ook us to the streets of Baltim[E]ore
[E]Her he[B]art was filled with laughter when she saw those city li[E]ghts
She said the prettiest place on earth is Baltimore at n[B]ight
Oh well a m[E]an feels proud to g[A]ive his woman w[E]hat she's longing f[A]or
And I ki[B]nd of liked the streets of Baltim[E]ore
[E]Well I got myself a fa[A]ctory job I r[E]an an old mac[A]hine
I bo[B]ught a little cottage in a ne[E]ighborhood serene
Yet every night when [A]I came home with ev[E]ery muscle so[A]re
She would dr[B]ag me through the streets of Baltim[E]ore
(Spoken ' Chords may not line up with words, Listen to music)
[E]Well [B]I did my best to bring her back to what she used to [E]be
But I soon learned she loved those bright lights much more than she loved [B]me
Now I'm a go[E]ing back on th[A]at same train t[E]hat brought me here bef[A]ore
While my b[B]aby walks the streets of Baltim[E]ore
Yes my b[B]aby walks the streets of Baltim[E]ore
