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's paradise to me 
It's not because it is the grand old seat 
Of precious freedom and democracy 
No, no, no 
It's not the greenery turning gold in fall 
The scenery circling the 
Mall It's just that's where my baby lives 
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 pagaentry 
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 
It's my baby's kiss that keeps me coming back
