[00:00.74]The Streets of Baltimore - The Hit Crew
[00:09.55]I sold the farm to take me woman
[00:13.68]Where she longed to be
[00:17.56]We left our kin and all our friends
[00:21.41]Back there in Tennessee
[00:25.79]I bought the one way tickets
[00:29.37]She had often begged me for
[00:33.81]And they took us to the streets of Baltimore
[00:42.39]Bridge
[00:43.08]Well my heart was filled with laughter
[00:46.28]When I saw those city lights
[00:50.51]She said the prettiest place on earth
[00:54.78]Was Baltimore at night
[01:00.74]Well a man feels proud to give his woman
[01:05.28]What she's longing for
[01:08.93]And I kind of liked the streets of Baltimore
[01:17.31]I got myself a factory job
[01:21.73]I ran an old machine
[01:25.68]We bought a little cottage
[01:29.62]In a neighborhood serene
[01:34.20]But every night when I came home
[01:38.35]With every muscle sore
[01:41.89]She would drag me through the streets of Baltimore
[01:52.83]Bridge
[01:53.31]Well I did my best to bring her back
[01:56.08]To what she used to be
[01:58.89]But I soon learned she loved those bright lights
[02:03.03]Much more than she loves me
[02:08.74]Now I'm goin' back on that same train
[02:13.37]That brought me here before
[02:17.25]While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
[02:25.14]Tag
[02:25.69]Yes my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
