Woodrow Wilson "Woody" Guthrie (July 14, 1912 – October 3, 1967) was an American singer-songwriter and folk musician whose musical legacy includes hundreds of political, traditional and children's songs, ballads and improvised works. He frequently performed with the slogan This Machine Kills Fascists displayed on his guitar. His best-known song is "This Land Is Your Land." Many of his recorded songs are archived in the Library of Congress.

I've gambled down in the town of Newport News 
The more I gamble, boys, the more I lose 
Baltimore to Washington
Oh Baltimore to Washington 
Oh Baltimore to Washington 
Oh Baltimore to Washington 
I guess they got troubles too 

Well the hobos know me up and down the line 
They don't know the trouble 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, boys 
From Baltimore to Washington 

And the police know me up and down the line 
They don't know the trouble on my hands 
I guess they got troubles too 
I guess they got trouble too, boy 
I guess they got troubles too 
I guess the police they got their troubles too 
From Baltimore to Washington 
Oh Baltimore to Washington 
Oh Baltimore to Washington 
Oh Baltimore to Washington 
I guess they've got troubles too 

Going up north and goin north this fall 
If my luck don't change I won't be back at all 
From Baltimore to Washington 
Oh Baltimore to Washington, boys 
Baltimore to Washington 
Baltimore to Washington 
I guess they got troubles too
