5 Chinese Brothers - Baltimore Lyrics
Tom meltzerOnce we won the series, took it going awayOnce we sat on top of the nfl and the nbaBut all thats over now, time went and slammed the doorAnd even I packed up and left the city of baltimoreYou know, the older we get the more we stay the sameI just found out my radio can pick up the oriole gamesI tune in every half-an-hour to get the scoreAnd remember the days when I was growing up in baltimoreBack then I lived in a house, not a one-room flatI didnt have to work or buy food or do anything like thatAnd the first girl that I ever loved lived right next doorAt night Id take my dads car and drive around baltimoreSomething tells me this picture isnt rightLike Im forgetting how I smashed my dads car driving stoned one nightHow my parents fought, how I never even dated the girl next doorHow I was just a lonely mixed-up kid in baltimoreLooking back now, you know I do believeWhen I lived in baltimore, I couldnt wait to leaveGo somewhere else and get a brand-new startNow Im dressing up the past cause the present is falling apartThe older we get the more we stay the sameChasing after something that doesnt even have a nameYou know, well always trade what weve got for what we had beforeEverybodys a fool for something, Im a fool for baltimore
