The Streets of Ol' Baltimore

That coffee is black just like my knuckles
And my hangover ain't why my heads so sore
Been fightin' with those i hold dearly
In the streets of ol' Baltimore

Last call was time to call a taxi
But i thought i ought to stay for more
Nothin' good happens after 3am
In the streets of ol' Baltimore

Street lights cast shadows of regret
And i forget just what we're fighting for
That sun will rise and the world carry's on
In the streets of ol' Baltimore

Now my heart hangs heavy like those anchors
Danglin' from those ships that line the shore
I'd sink just as quick if i were to slip
From the streets of ol' Baltimore

I drove through Canton just to find 'em
Can't find my way back to before
That liquor made loose lips so reckless
In the streets of ol' Baltimore

That long drive home, i'll make it alone
In a silence too loud to ignore
Just haunted by scars on the pavement
Of the streets of ol' Baltimore

Just haunted by scars from the pavement
Of the streets of ol' Baltimore
