G CWell, I sold my farm to take my woman
G CWhere she longed to be
DWe left our kin and all our friends
C GBack there in Tennessee
G CI bought those one-way tickets
G CThat she'd often begged me for
D GThey took us to the streets of Baltimore
DHer heart was filled with gladness
C GJust to see those city lights
GShe swore the prettiest place on earth
DWas Baltimore at night
G CA man feels proud to give his woman
G CWhat she's longing for
D GAnd I kinda liked the streets of Baltimore
G CI got myself a factory job
G CI ran an old machine
DI bought a little cottage
C GIn a neighborhood serene
G CAnd every night when I'd come home
G CWith every muscle sore
D GShe'd drag me through the streets of Baltimore
DI did my best to bring her back
C GTo where she used to be
GBut I soon learned she loved those bright lights
DMore than she loved me
G CSo I'm a-going back on that same train
G CThat brought me here before
D GWhile my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
D C GWhile my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
