Baltimore

Beat-up little seagull On the maple stair Trying to find the ocean Looking everywhere Hard times in the city In a hard time by the sea Ain't nowhere to run to There ain't nothing here for free Hooker on the corner Waiting for a train Drunk lion on the sidewalk Sleeping in the rain And they hide their faces And they hide their eyes 'Cause the city is dying And they don't know why 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 Living in the country Where the mountain's high Never coming back here Until 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 Oh, Baltimore Man, it's hard Man, it's hard Just to live Just to live Just to live Just to live
