About this song: The Lady Came From Baltimore
"The Lady Came from Baltimore" was written by Tim Hardin and features on his 1967 album "Tim Hardin 2" (which also contains Hardin's most popular and much-covered composition "If I Were a Carpenter"). Dick Weissman's book "Which side are you on?: an inside history of the folk music revival in America" claims that Hardin wrote "The Lady Came from Baltimore" about his courtship and marriage to actress Susan Morss (known professionally as Susan Yardley).
