“This here is the city of Washington the nation’s capitol where the President of the United States of America and ever’body is,”
All that land I told you we done roll over in the bus all night, here we was in the middle of it, ’case they never was a town so white and so laid out grand, and brother woke up and said “This here is the city of Washington the nation’s capitol where the President of the United States of America and ever’body is,” and he rub his eyes, and I look close and can see they’s a heap of things goin on yonder in Washington ’case I hear it hum all over when the bus slow down at the river red light and I put my head out the window to watch.
