BALTIMORE FIRE It was on a silver falls by a narrow That I heard the cry I ever will remember, The fire sent and cast its burning embers On another faded city of our land. cho: Fire, Fire, I heard the cry From every breeze that passes by, All the world was one sad cry of pity Strong men in anguish prayed, Calling loud to Heaven for aid, While the fire in ruin was laying Fair Baltimore, the beautiful city Amid an awful struggle of commotion, The wind blew a gale from the ocean, Brave firemen struggled with devotion, But their efforts all proved in vain. cho: The awful news did spread across the wire Of another sad catastrophe so dire, That Baltimore City is afire, And sinking 'neath the foe's relentless hand. From New Lost City Ramblers; originally recorded by Charlie Poole. @fire filename[ BALTFIRE TUNE FILE: BALTFIRE CLICK TO PLAY RG |
