Lady Came From Baltimore

Tim Hardin

Lady came from Baltimore 
All she wore was lace 
She didn't know that I was poor 
She never saw my place 

I was there to steal her money 
Take her rings and run 
Then I fell in love with the lady 
Got away with none 

The lady's name was Susan Moore 
Her daddy read the law 
She didn't know that I was poor 
And lived outside the law 

Her daddy said, I was a thief
And didn't marry her for love 
I was Susan's true belief 
And married her for love 

I was there to steal her money 
To take her rings and run 
Then I fell in love with the lady
Got away with none 

The house she lived in had a wall
To keep the robbers out 
She'd never stop to think at all
If that's what I'm about 

I was there to steal her money
Take her rings and run 
Then I fell in love with the lady 
Got away with none
