- (continued from previous page)Because I was poor he could not endure
He stated o'er and o'er
It is far away I am today
From you, Kitty of Baltimore.A good six months or later
A letter I did receive
The very first lines that I did read
my heart did slowly grieve.
The very first lines that I did read
It stated o'er and o'er
She was going to be wed to a farmer's son
That lived near Baltimore.Now all you dashing young fellows
A warning take from me
Don't ever put too much confidence
In any young girls you will see
For they will tell you this
And they will tell you that
As they often did before
They will bob their hair
And leave you there
Like Kitty from Baltimore.
