G C
Well, I sold my farm to take my woman
G C
Where she longed to be
D
We left our kin and all our friends
C G
Back there in Tennessee
G C
I bought those one-way tickets
G C
That she'd often begged me for
D G
They took us to the streets of Baltimore
D
Her heart was filled with gladness
C G
Just to see those city lights
G
She swore the prettiest place on earth
D
Was Baltimore at night
G C
A man feels proud to give his woman
G C
What she's longing for
D G
And I kinda liked the streets of Baltimore
G C
I got myself a factory job
G C
I ran an old machine
D
I bought a little cottage
C G
In a neighborhood serene
G C
And every night when I'd come home
G C
With every muscle sore
D G
She'd drag me through the streets of Baltimore
D
I did my best to bring her back
C G
To where she used to be
G
But I soon learned she loved those bright lights
D
More than she loved me
G C
So I'm a-going back on that same train
G C
That brought me here before
D G
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
D C G
While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
