Streets of Baltimore Lyrics - Coldplay

1 Well I sold the farm to take my woman

2 Where she used to be

3 We left our kin and all our friends

4 Back there in Tennessee

5 And I bought those one way tickets

6 She had often begged me for

7 And they took us to the streets of Baltimore

8 Well her heart was filled with gladness

9 When she saw those city lights

10 She said the prettiest place on earth was

11 Baltimore at night

12 Well a man feels proud to give his woman

13 What she's longing for

14 And I kinda liked the streets of Baltimore

15 Then I got myself a factory job

16 I ran an old machine

17 And I bought a little cottage

18 In a neighbourhood serene

19 And every night when I'd come home

20 With every muscle sore

21 She'd drag me through the streets of Baltimore

22 Well I did my best to bring her back

23 To what she used to be

24 Then I soon learned she loved those bright lights

25 More than she loved me

26 Now I'm a going back on that same train

27 That brought me here before

28 While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore

29 While my baby walks the streets of Baltimore
