Explanatory notes: * Indicates a "grace" note p is a pull-off w is a slur -I use SG's term of "wham" to avoid confusion with: s slide from 1st to 2nd note Br is a "brush" across the strings shown 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.
