Baltimore
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
Aint nowhere to run to
There aint nothin here for free
Hooker on the corner
Waiting for a train
Drunk lying on the sidewalk
Sleeping in the rain
And the hide their faces
And they hide their eyes
Cause the citys dyin
And they dont know why
Oh Baltimore
Aint it hard just to live
Just to live
Get my sister Sandy
And my little brother Ray
Buy a big old wagon
To haul us all away
Live out in the country
Where the mountains high
Never gonna come back here
Till the day I die
Oh baltimore
Aint it hard just to live
Oh Baltimore
Aint it hard just to live
Just to live
Oh Baltimore
Aint it hard
Aint it hard just to live
Just to live
