Good Morning Baltimore

(Album: Hairspray - 2007)

[Tracy:]
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
That 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

[Tracy (Ensemble):]
Good morning Baltimore (Good morning Baltimore)
Every day's like an open door (aah)
Every night is a fantasy (Fantasy)
Every sound's like a symphony
Good morning Baltimore (Good morning Baltimore)
And some day when I take to the floor (ooh)
The world's gonna wake up and see (aah, see)
Baltimore and me

Oh, oh, oh, look at my hair (ooh, ooh)
What 'do can compare with mine today? (Mine today)
Oh, oh, oh, I've got my hairspray and radio
I'm ready to go! (Ready to go)
The rats on the street all dance 'round my feet (ooh)
They seem to say, "Tracy, it's up to you" (Up to you)
So, oh, oh, don't hold me back
Cause today all my dreams will come true (Today all my dreams will come true)

Good morning Baltimore (Good morning Baltimore)
There's the flasher who lives next door (aah)
There's the bum on his bar room stool (Bar room stool)
They wish me luck on my way to school
Good morning Baltimore (Good morning Baltimore)
And some day when I take to the floor (ooh)
The world's gonna wake up and see (aah, see)
Baltimore and me!

I know every step, (ooh) I know every song (ooh)
I know there's a place where I belong (Where I belong)
I see all those party lights shining ahead (ooh)
So someone invite me before I drop dead! (Before she drops dead!)

So, oh, oh, give me a chance (ooh)
Cause when I start to dance, I'm a movie star (Movie star)
Oh, oh, oh, something inside of me makes me move (ooh, makes me move)
When I hear that groove (I hear that groove)
My ma tells me no, but my feet tell me go! (ooh)
It's like a drummer inside my heart (Inside my heart)
So, oh, oh, don't make me wait
One more moment for my life to start (One more moment for my life to start)

[Ensemble:]
Good morning, good morning
Waiting for my life to start

[Tracy (Ensemble):]
I love you Baltimore (I love you Baltimore)
Every day's like an open door (aah)
Every night is a fantasy (Fantasy)
Every sound's like a symphony
And I promise Baltimore (I promise Baltimore)
That some day when I take to the floor (Take to the floor)
The world's gonna wake up and see (aah, see)
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! (And me!)
