G             D
Washington, D.C.
     C           G
It's paradise to me
     Am             C                G    D                        
It's not because it is the grand old seat
   Am               C           G
Of precious freedom and democracy 
        D
no, no, no
     C                Em               Am
It's not the greenery turning gold in fall
            G            D     D7
The scenery circling the Mall
     Am                   C
It's just that's where my baby lives
       G
That's all.

Washington, D.C.!
It's the greatest place to be
It's not the cherries everywhere in bloom
It's not the way they put folks on the moon
No, no, no
It's not the spectacles and pageantry
The thousand things you've got to see
It's just that's where my baby waits for me

W a-s-h i-n-g t-o-n, baby, D.C.!
W a-s-h i-n-g t-o-n, baby, D.C.!

Washington, D.C.!
It fits me to a T
It's not the people doing something real
It's not the way the springtime makes you feel
No, no, no
It ain't no famous name on a golden plaque
That makes me ride that railroad track
It's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back
        C                D               G
It's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back
