Lady Came From Baltimore ((aka Sussy Moore (Lollipops) - 1967)) Composer(s): Tim Hardin First recording/First release by: Bobby Darin - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists
Lady came from Baltimore 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 Take her rings and run Then I fell in love with the lady 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 I was Susan's true belief Married her for love
I was there to steal her money To take her rings and run Then I fell in love with the lady Got away with none
The house she lived in had a wall To keep the robbers out She'd never stop to think at all If that's what I'm about
I was there to steal her money Take her rings and run Then I fell in love with the lady Got away with none
