Lyrics of 'Good Morning Baltimore' by Hairspray

Oh, oh, oh
Woke up today
Feeling the way I always do

Oh, oh, oh
Hungry for something
That I can't eat
Then I hear that beat

The rhythm of town
Starts calling me down
It's like a message from
High above

Oh, oh, oh
Pulling me out
To the smiles
And the streets that I love

Good morning, Baltimore!
Every day's like an open door
Every night is a fantasy
Every sound's like a symphony

Good morning, Baltimore!
And some day when I take to the floor
The world's gonna wake up and see
Baltimore and me

Oh, oh, oh
Look at my hair
What do can compare with mine today?

Oh, oh, oh
I've got my hairspray and radio
I'm ready to go

The rats on the street
All dance round my feet
They seem to say
Tracy, it's up to you

So, oh, oh
Don't hold me back
'Cause today all my dreams will come true

Good morning, Baltimore!
There's the flasher who lives next door
There's the bum on his bar room stool
They wish me luck on my way to school

Good morning, Baltimore!
And some day when I take to the floor
The world's gonna wake up and see
Baltimore and me

I know every step
I know every song
I know there's a place where I belong
I see all those party lights shining ahead
So someone invite me
Before I drop dead!

Before she drops dead!

So, oh, oh
Give me a chance
'Cause when I start to dance I'm a movie star

Oh, oh, oh
Something inside of me makes me move
When I hear the groove

My ma tells me no
But my feet tell me go!
It's like a drummer inside my heart

Oh, oh, oh
Don't make me wait
One more moment for my life to start

Good morning, good morning
Waiting for my life to start

I love you, Baltimore!
Every day's like an open door
Every night is a fantasy
Every sound's like a symphony

And I promise, Baltimore
That some day when
I take to the floor
The world's gonna wake up and see
Gonna wake up and see
Baltimore and me

Yes, more or less we all agree

Baltimore and me

Someday the world
Is gonna see

Baltimore and me!
