Lady came from baltimore Lyrics

Lady came from baltimore Lyrics

The lady came from Baltimore and 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 to take her rings and run
Then I fell in love with the lady and 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
But I was Susan's true believe and I married her for love

I was there to steal her money...
[ strings ]
The house she lived in had a wall to keep the robbers out
She never stopped to think at all that that's what I'm about

I was there to steal her money...
Then I fell in love with the lady and got away with none
