Tomorrow Night In Baltimore Lyrics - Roger Miller

Her head rolls back and forth 

Against the billows of her long black shiny hair 

As she contemplates the ecstasy 

Of some other love that now she wished was there 

If she could only realize that the love I have could beckon her command 

Instead of laughing endlessly and pushing back advances with her hands 

Every night I see her leaves a nightmare of illusions when she's gone 

And it leaves a longing feeling in a man with a pain that lingers on 

The gaudy goodbye can't replace the girlish giggle of her sweet hello 

But tonight I've made my crumbled mind up that I'll never ever let her go 

Too many nights I've watched her tease 

By shifting all her weight from hip to hip 

And with her hands brush back the falling strands 

That cover up her satin lips 

She struts upon the stage and her fallen victims are calling out for more 

But she leaves them stranded helplessly and exits to her dressing room door 

Tonight I'm gonna take her, I've infiltrated past the guarded door 

But she just hurries by me carrying all those scanty costumes that she wore 

And asks a sawed off cigar smoking cat if he would open up the door 

Then she told him to load the baggage 

Because they open tomorrow night in baltimore 

God if I have to crawl, I'm gonna be there tomorrow night in baltimore
