Raining in Baltimore
This circus is falling down on its kneesThe big top is crumbling downIt’s raining in Baltimore fifty miles eastWhere you should be, no one’s aroundI need a phone callI need a raincoatI need a big loveI need a phone call
These train conversations are passing me byAnd I don’t have nothing to sayYou get what you pay forBut I just had no intention of leaving this way
I need a phone callI need a plane rideI need a sunburnI need a raincoat
And I get no answersAnd I don’t get no changeIt’s raining in Baltimore, babyBut everything else is the same
There’s things I remember and things I forgetI miss youI guess that I shouldThree thousand five hundred miles awayBut what would you change if you could?
I need a phone callMaybe I should buy a new carI can always hear a freight trainIf I listen real hardAnd I wish it was a small worldBecause I’m lonely for the big townsI’d like to hear a little guitarI think it’s time to put the top down
I need a phone callI need a raincoat
