Lyrics Joan Baez – The Lady Came From Baltimore
Text:
The lady came from Baltimore
All she wore was lace
She didn’t know that I was poor
She never saw my face
I was sent to steal her money
Take her rings and run
But I fell in love with the lady
Came away with none
The lady’s name was Suzanne Moore
Her daddy read her law
She didn’t know that I was poor
Livin’ outside the law
I was sent to steal her money
Take her rings and run
But I fell in love with the lady
Came away with none
Her daddy said I was a thief
And didn’t have her love
?
But I
?
was Suzanne’s true belief
I married her for love
?
I was sent to steal her money
Take her rings and run
But I fell in love with the lady
Came away with none
The way she lived in?
To keep the robbers out
That’s what I’m about
I was sent to steal her money
Take her rings and run
But I fell in love with the lady
Came away with none
