Baltimore Fire


It was on a silver falls by a narrow
That I heard the cry I ever will remember
The fire set and cast its burning ember
On another fated city of our land
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 out to the heavens for aid
While the fire in ruins was laid
Fair Baltimore the beautiful city
Amid an awful struggle and commotion
The wind blew a gale from the ocean
Brave firemen struggled with devotion
But their efforts all proved in vain
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 out to the heavens for aid
While the fire in ruins was laid
Fair Baltimore the beautiful city
