|
the lady cam from Baltimore |
|
all she wore was lace |
|
she didn't know that I was poor |
|
she never saw my face |
|
I was sent to steal her money |
|
take her rings and run |
|
but I fell in love with the lady |
|
came away with none |
|
the lady's name was Suzanne Moore |
|
her daddy read her law |
|
she didn't know that I was poor |
|
livin' outside the law |
|
I was sent to steal her money |
|
take her rings and run |
|
but I fell in love with the lady |
|
came away with none |
|
her daddy said I was a thief |
|
and didn't have her love(?) |
|
but I (that?) was Suzanne's true belief |
|
I married her for love (?) |
|
I was sent to steal her money |
|
take her rings and run |
|
but I fell in love with the lady |
|
came away with none |
|
the way she lived in ? |
|
to keep the robbers out |
|
she never stop to think it all |
|
that's what I'm about |
|
I was sent to steal her money |
|
take her rings and run |
|
but I fell in love with the lady |
|
came away with none |
