Lyrics
Baltimore
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
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
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
Ain't it hard just to live?
Ain't it hard just to live?
Just to live
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
Till the day I die
Ain't it hard just to live?
Ain't it hard just to live?
Just to live
