Lyrics: I've gambled all around the town of Newport News
and the more I gamble, boys the more I lose!
Baltimore to Washington.
Oh Baltimore to Washington.
Oh Baltimore to Washington.
Baltimore to Washington,
I guess they got troubles too.
The hobos know me up and down the line,
they don't know the troubles on my mind.
I guess they got troubles too.
I guess they got troubles too, boys.
I guess they got troubles too.
I guess they got troubles too.
Baltimore to Washington.
The po-lice know me up and down the line-
they don't know the troubles on my hands;
I guess they got troubles too.
I guess they got troubles too.
I guess they got troubles too.
I guess the po-lice they got their troubles too.
Baltimore to Washington.
Goin' up North I'm goin' North this Fall,
if my luck don't change I won't be back at all.
Baltimore to Washington.
Oh Baltimore to Washington.
Oh Baltimore to Washington.
Baltimore to Washington,
I guess they got troubles too.
