a lady came from baltimore all she wore was lace
she didn’t know that i was poor she never saw my place
i was there to steal her money take her rings and run
then i fell in love with the lady got away with none
the lady’s name was susan moore her daddy read the law
she didn’t know that i was poor and lived outside the law
daddy said i was a thief didn’t marry her for love
but i was susan’s true belief i married her for love
i was there to steal her money take her rings and run
then i fell in love with the lady got away with none
house she lived in had a wall to keep the robbers out
she never stopped to think at all that’s what i’m about
i was there to steal her money to take her rings and run
then i fell in love with the lady got away with none
then i fell in love with the lady got away with none
