lirik lagu baltimore – charlie shafter
never been to baltimore
but i’ve seen the wire and read poe
[burned?] frost in effigy
and tried to dig rembaud
along the way i’ve been a foreigner
nearly everywhere i go
been known to drink all kinda wine
but never seen bordeaux
ulysses, he comes to me
with a bottleneck slide
despite my genuine affinity
i’ve never made that thing cry
doctor benway, he says that life
it’s never something that you own
but a man who can pick up a frying pan
can become death’s clone
i said that once to sylvia
and she gave this morbid smile
and filled my gl-ss up to the brim
and said, “come sit with me a while”
this day she blooms, this day she wilts
and she’s no lady by d-mn sight
but if she tests my sweet temperance
i might be staying there tonight
there’s some things, lord, i can’t live without
though i try and try in vain
in the absence of their memory
i’d likely amount to the same
lately i’ve been busy shooting down angels
with stolen bullets from a king
now them angels ain’t nothing
but a waste of a good pair of wings
i’ll take the feathers and i’ll put one in my hat
for all the earthly world to see
when people ask me where i got it from
i’ll grin and give one to ’em free
in time, i know i’ll be called upon
and made to answer to myself
i’ll look saint peter straight in the eye and say
“i coulda used a little help”
