Baltimore Song Lyrics
Print Version
Beat-up little seagull
On a marble stair
Tryin' to find the ocean
Lookin' everywhere
Hard times in the city
In a hard town by the sea
Ain't nowhere to run to
There ain't nothin' here for free
Hooker on the corner
Waitin' for a train
Drunk lyin' on the sidewalk
Sleepin' in the rain
And they hide their faces
And they hide their eyes
'Cause the city's dyin'
And they don't know why
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live, just to live
Get my sister Sandy
And my little brother Ray
Buy a big old wagon
Gonna haul us all away
Livin' in the country
Where the mountain's high
Never comin' back here
'Til the day I die
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live
Oh, Baltimore
Man, it's hard just to live, just to live

Other Randy Newman song Lyrics | A Fool In Love "Look at the light coming over me show me a man whos gentle and kind and I'll show you a loser now, show me a man who takes what he wants..." | A Wedding in Cherokee County "There she is sitting there Out behind the smoke-house in her rocking chair She don't do nothin' She don't say nothin'..." | Back In Time "Tell me doctor, where are we goin this time? Is this the fifties, or 1999? All I wanted to do..... Was play my guitar and sing........." | Back On My Feet Again "Doctor, let me tell you something about myself I'm a college man and I'm very wealthy I've got no time to trifle with trash like you Cause I must be 'bout my business..." | Bad News From Home "High on a cliff in Mexico Staring down at the rocks and the sea below I can hear the church bells ring I can hear the choir..." | Bet No One Ever Hurt This Bad "Sit by my window and watch the rain I hear it beating on my window pane Well, it makes me so sad Be no one ever hurt this bad..." | Better Off Dead "Musically, this one has a sort of overblown, heavenly quality to it. But lyrically, it's another story of a guy getting himself into a bad relationship that he can't get out of. He says, ";When you fall in love with someone who doesn't love you Someone who treats you so badly it ramifies your head Someone who doesn't want you but won't let you go Someone who thinks you're crazy and tells you so, over and over and over If this happens to you, you're better off dead."; It's exaggerated, but there's a kernel of truth there for so many people. You don't know what bad is until you feel that. I know what I'm talking about because I was once a woman who loved too much. I know some critic is going to think I don't know what the word ramify means, or how to use it. made up an alternate verb form of it here, like a made-up R..." | Big Hat, No Cattle "There's a book called The Duke of Deception, written by Geoffrey Wolff. It's about his father, who was a tremendous liar, though he appeared to be completely beyond reproach. He'd created this whole parallel identity, pretending to have attended certain schools, pretending to have certain businesses. He made a profession of lying. I'm not talking about an occasional lie - that does not qualify for ";Big Hat, No Cattle."; I'm talking about people who base a whole life on lying, people who have cards that say ";producer,"; or ";CEO, Cloverdale Music."; What does it cost to have cards printed up with anything you want? Nothing...." | |
