Baltimore Blues No. 1

Kiss all your saviors goodbye

Offer them up to the dead

No kidding, you know who's right

And whose got a price on their head

No doubt I'd sell you all out

For a pocketful of silver and gold

Way back when, when they made me one of them

Don't you know they're gonna save my soul?

I can't hang around with you like this, my friend

Our time has come to an end

I can't play around with you no more

No, I'm seeing this open door

And I know you saw right through me

Afraid I'm taking you for a ride

But when you're dead, you're dead

When you're gone, you're gone

I got my conscience at both of my sides

Now I set out to disappear

And out there I found a new home

But listen Jack, you're on the wrong side of the tracks

At least now I don't have to walk it all alone

Can you hear the sound of the crawling flesh?

Now can you smell the burning desire?

This place is too small to hide

All the ghosts kicking around inside

And what this town was entirely built upon

You can find it right between the eyes

It's a bullet hole that'll steal your soul

And roll you for your money and your diamonds

I set out to disappear

And out there I found a new home

But listen Jack, you're on the wrong side of the tracks

At least now I don't have to walk it all alone
