The lady came from Baltimore and 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, to take her rings and run.

Then I fell in love with the lady and 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.

Her daddy said I was a thief and didn't marry her for love.

But I was Susan's true belief, and I married her for love

The house she lived in had a wall to keep the robbers out.

She never stopped to think at all, that that's what I'm about.
