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

Once we won the series, took it going away
Once we sat on top of the nfl and the nba
But all that’s over now, time went and slammed the door
And even i packed up and left the city of baltimore
You know, the older we get the more we stay the same
I just found out my radio can pick up the oriole games
I tune in every half-an-hour to get the score
And remember the day’s when i was growing up in baltimore

Back then i lived in a house, not a one-room flat
I didn’t have to work or buy food or do anything like that
And the first girl that i ever loved lived right next door
At night i’d take my dad’s car and drive around baltimore
Something tells me this picture isn’t right
Like i’m forgetting how i smashed my dad’s car driving stoned one night
How my parents fought, how i never even dated the girl next door
How i was just a lonely mixed-up kid in baltimore

Looking back now, you know i do believe
When i lived in baltimore, i couldn’t wait to leave
Go somewhere else and get a brand-new start
Now i’m dressing up the past ‘cause the present is falling apart
The older we get the more we stay the same
Chasing after something that doesn’t even have a name
You know, we’ll always trade what we’ve got for what we had before
Everybody’s a fool for something, i’m a fool for baltimore

It’s so nice to live here,
I’m glad this is my home,
I’ve got a homestead on baltimore street
It’s someplace to call my own

It’s all kinds of people,
Familiar places, smiling faces,
I’m proud to say i’m a baltimorian.
But the ‘birds’ are the best,
The best of baltimore.

We like it here in baltimore,
There’s so much love in baltimore,
Working hand in hand,
To make this place a better land in baltimore,
Love is what you’ll find so stop and take the time,
I’ve got oriole baseball on my mind.

We like it here in baltimore,
There’s so much love in baltimore,
Working hand in hand,
To make this place a better land in baltimore,
Love is what you’ll find so stop and take the time,
To enjoy the brotherhood of baltimore.

The sun sets across the bay
I’m glad i spend my day
In a working american city
With all the people who make it that way,
It’s time to jump in a taxi
For thirty-third street
Knowing i’ll be watching those ‘birds’ go,
Watching weaver’s show.

We like it here in baltimore,
There’s so much love in baltimore,
Working hand in hand,
To make this place a better land in baltimore,
Love is what you’ll find so stop and take the time,
I’ve got oriole baseball on my mind.

On my mind in baltimore

I know i’ve seen this place before
Lord can’t you hear me screaming
As a young man long ago
When i was twenty-one

And i know i’ve seen this house before
With people all around it
With my baby cousin on the floor
And mama in the kitchen

And a woman lies upon the bed
I think she must be dying
And i recall the words she said
As she began to cry

She begged son please don’t go to baltimore
And leave me where i’m lying
For you will son but i no more
Walk among the living

And if you go to baltimore
Then i’ll see you in heaven
And as you breathe i’ll breathe no more
And i will surely die

Well you know i went to baltimore
So confident and wise
And as i breathed she breathed no more
And she did surely die

And now as i lie upon my bed
I pray i must be dreaming
With faces all around my head
And strangers at my door

And a woman’s voice calls out to me
Bring unto you your children
And let them see these things you see
And hear the words you say

Beg them to go to baltimore
And leave you where you’re lying
Just like you did one time before
When you were twenty-one

And if they go to baltimore
Then i’ll see you in heaven
And as they breathe you’ll breathe no more
And you will surely die

And i know i’ve seen this place before
Lord can’t you hear me screaming
And if i should awaken lord
Then answer me my plea

What makes the sun set in the west
And birds fly in the sky
And what makes a woman beat her breast
When her children start to cry

And what makes those little ones grow old
To find eternity
And what takes the wise
And leaves behind
A foolish one like me
