These dance hall girls, they don't treat you kind
|
They give you their bodies, but you never reach their minds
|
Well, they fill you up with lipstick lies
|
When they put you down some, don't ya be surprised
|
Is this the way it always is, here in Baltimore?
|
|
Well, I saw her mountains, and I kissed her plains
|
I held her sunshine, and I drank her rains
|
Well, I went so far, that I broke too fast
|
Thought I had me a winner picked, but I came in last again
|
Is this the way it always is, here in Baltimore?
|
|
(Chorus)
|
I must have chosen the wrong season to come down
|
I never realized they called this sacred ground
|
|
My sense of time, hell, I'm a week behind
|
I sent me a letter home but this all takes time
|
|
Gonna get some cash, gonna go back home
|
These dance hall girls really know how to make a man feel alone
|
Is this the way it always is, here in Baltimore?
|
|
(Chorus)
|
My sense of time, hell, I'm a week behind
|
I sent me a letter home but this all takes time
|
Gonna get some cash, gonna blow this town
|
These dance hall girls really know how to drag a poor boy down
|
Is this the way it always is, here in Baltimore?
|
Is this the way it always is, here in Baltimore?
