Johnny Cash - The 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

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 belief
And I married her for love
I was there to steal her money
To take her rings and run
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


Then I fell in love with the
Lady and got away with none
