DO SOL DO
These dance hall girls, they'll treat you kind
DO FA DO
They'll give you their bodies, but you'll never touch their minds
FA DO FA MIm FA
They'll fill you up, with lipstick lies
FA DO
Then they'll put you down son
SOL LAm RE
Don't be surprised
RE DO SOL FA DO SOL DO
Is this the way it always is here in Baltimore?
DO SOL DO
I held her mountains, I kissed her plains
DO FA DO
I touched her sunshine, Lord then I drank her rains
FA DO FA MIm FA
But I went too far, I broke too fast
FA DO
I thought I had a winner picked
SOL LAm RE
But I came in last, again
RE DO SOL FA DO SOL DO
Is this the way it always is here in Baltimore?
Refrain:
MIm FA DO
I must have chosen the wrong season to come down
MIm FA SOL
I never realized they call this sacred ground
SOL DO SOL DO
My sense of time, hell I'm a week behind
DO FA DO
I sent a letter home, but this all takes time you know
FA DO FA MIm FA
I gotta get some money, I wanna go back home
FA DO
But these dance hall girls
DO SOL LAm RE
Know how to make a man feel alone
RE DO SOL FA DO SOL DO
Is this the way it always is here in Baltimore?
Solo: Play through one verse
Repeat Refrain
SOL DO SOL DO
My sense of time, hell I'm a week behind
DO FA DO
They'll give you their bodies, but you'll never touch their minds
FA DO FA MIm FA
They'll fill you up, with lipstick lies
FA DO
These dance hall girls say
SOL LAm RE
They can't stand to see a grown man cry
RE DO SOL FA
Is this the way it always is here in Baltimore?
FA DO SOL FA
Is this the way it always is here in Montreal?
FA DO SOL FA DO SOL
Is this the way it always is here in Baltimore?
FA DO SOL FA DO SOL DO
