🎵 Let’s sing along with the lyrics! 🎤
Beat-up little seagullOn a marble stairTryin’ to find the oceanLookin’ everywhereHard times in the cityIn a hard town by the seaAin’t nowhere to run toThere ain’t nothin’ here for freeWaitin’ for a trainDrunk lyin’ on the sidewalkSleepin’ in the rainAnd they hide their facesAnd they hide their eyes‘Cause the city’s dyin’And they don’t know whyOh, BaltimoreMan, it’s hard just to liveOh, BaltimoreMan, it’s hard just to live, just to liveGet my sister SandyAnd my little brother RayBuy a big old wagonGonna haul us all awayLivin’ in the countryWhere the mountain’s highNever comin’ back here‘Til the day I dieOh, BaltimoreMan, it’s hard just to liveOh, BaltimoreMan, it’s hard just to live, just to live
