[Verse 1]
I had some good times down
There in Baltimore town
Ten hills to Patterson Park
Where the neon fog
From the harbor crawls
To settle on Federal Hill
Woe and strife's
Got a hold on tight
They won't let this poor city go
'Cause there are dirty streets
That the rain can't clean
Fog that the sun can't burn off
[Chorus]
But there's a new city lit by the Lamb
Sung by the seraphim band
Where all manner of things will be well in the end
In that new city
[Verse 2]
Above thе Sunset Strip
Where thе laurel drips
Tears from those Hollywood eyes
I took a canyon road
Like a vein of gold
Chasing some jangling dreams
Fear and trembling shake these hills
Won't let these poor people go
And there are graves unmarked
Over Griffith Park
Dreams that have sputtered and died
I had some good times down
There in Baltimore town
Ten hills to Patterson Park
Where the neon fog
From the harbor crawls
To settle on Federal Hill
Woe and strife's
Got a hold on tight
They won't let this poor city go
'Cause there are dirty streets
That the rain can't clean
Fog that the sun can't burn off
[Chorus]
But there's a new city lit by the Lamb
Sung by the seraphim band
Where all manner of things will be well in the end
In that new city
[Verse 2]
Above thе Sunset Strip
Where thе laurel drips
Tears from those Hollywood eyes
I took a canyon road
Like a vein of gold
Chasing some jangling dreams
Fear and trembling shake these hills
Won't let these poor people go
And there are graves unmarked
Over Griffith Park
Dreams that have sputtered and died
