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