Baltimore Lyrics by Nina Simone Nina Simone
Below, you will find the lyrics for Baltimore by Nina Simone.
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
Waiting for a train
Drunk lying on the sidewalk
Sleeping in the rain
And the people hide their faces
And they hide their eyes
'Cause the city's dyin'
And they don't know why
Baltimore
Ain't it hard just to live?
Baltimore
Ain't 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 mountain's high
Never gonna come back here
'Til the day I die
Baltimore
Ain't it hard just to live?
Baltimore
Ain't it hard just to live?
Just to live
