Oh, oh, oh, woke up today
feeling the way I always do.
Oh, oh, oh, hungry for something that I can't eat.
Then I hear the beat.
That rhythm of town starts calling me down,
It's like a message from high above,
oh, oh, oh, pulling me out to the
smiles and the streets that I love.
Good morning, Baltimore!
Ev'ry day's like an open door.
Ev'ry night is a fantasy.
Ev'ry sound's like a symphony.
Good morning, Baltimore!
And someday when I take to the floor,
the world's gonna wake up and see
Baltimore and me.
Oh, oh, oh, look at my hair.
What "do" can compare with mine today?
Oh, oh, oh, I've got my hairspray and radio.
I'm ready to go.
The rats on the street all dance 'round my feet.
They seem to say, "Tracy, it's up to you."
So, oh, oh, don't hold me back,
'cause today all my dreams will come true.
Good morning, Baltimore!
There's the flasher who lives next door.
There's the bum on his bar-room stool.
They wish me luck on my way to school.
Good morning, Baltimore!
And someday when I take to the floor,
the world's gonna wake up and see
Baltimore and me.
I know ev'ry step, I know ev'ry song.
I know there's a place where I belong.
I see all those party lights shining ahead.
So someone invite me before I drop dead!
So, oh, oh, give me a chance,
'cause when I start to dance I'm a movie star.
Oh, oh, oh, something inside of me makes me move
when I hear that groove.
My ma tells me, "No," but my feet tell me, "Go."
It's like a drummer inside my heart.
So, oh, oh, don't make me wait one more
moment for my life to start.
I love you, Baltimore!
Ev'ry day's like an open door.
Ev'ry night is a fantasy.
Ev'ry sound's like a symphony.
And I promise, Baltimore,
that someday when I take to the floor,
the world's gonna wake up and see,
gonna wake up and see
Baltimore and me.
Baltimore and me,
Baltimore and me!
