Well I sold the farm to take my woman where she longed to beWe 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 lightsShe said the prettiest place on earth was Baltimore at nightWell a man feels proud to give his woman what she's longing forAnd I kind of like the Streets of BaltimoreThen I got myself a factory job, I ran an old machineAnd I bought a little cottage in a neighborhood sereneAnd 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 beThen I soon learned she loved those bright lights more than she loved meNow I'm-a-going back on that same train that brought me here beforeWhile my baby walks the streets of BaltimoreWhile my baby walks the streets of Baltimore Aus Songtexte Mania
