Roger Miller - Tomorrow Night In Baltimore lyrics

Her head rolls back and forth
Against the billows of her
Long black shiny hair
As she contemplates the ecstasy
Of some other love that now
She wished was there

If she could only realise that the love
I have could beckon her command
Instead of laughing endlessly and pushing
Back advances with her hands

Every night I see her leaves a
Nightmare of illusions when she's gone
And it leaves a longing feeling in a
Man with a pain that lingers on

The gaudy goodbye can't replace the girlish
Giggle of her sweet hello
But tonight I've made my crumbled mind up
That I'll never ever let her go

Too many nights I've watched
Her tease by shifting
All her weight from hip to hip
And with her hands brush back the falling
Strands that cover up her satin lips

She struts upon the stage and her fallen
Victims are calling out for more
But she leaves them stranded helplessly and
Exit's to her dressing room door

Tonight I'm gonna take her
I've infiltrated past the guarded door
But she just hurries by me carrying all
Those scanty costumes that she wore

And she asks a sawed off cigar smoking cat
If he would open up the door
Then she told him to load the baggage
Because they open tomorrow night in Baltimore

God' if I have to crawl
I'm gonna be there tomorrow
Night in Baltimore
