Lyrics Nothing As Original As You - The Statler Brothers

Sitting in a hotel room in Washington DC
Looking out the window at the miles of history
Somewhere in the skyline is the Capitol dome
And the White House that just a few men have called home

Paintings by the masters hanging on its walls
Words of the greatest still ringing in its halls
Antiques and heirlooms from another century
Statues and monuments just waiting there for me

And today I saw the first airplane that flew
Saw a dinosaur and a space module too
Saw Washington's Monument and marveled at the view
But even here there's nothing as original as you

Saw a play at Ford's Theatre and let me tell you this
The Pentagon is something no one should ever miss
Saw Jefferson's memorial and I saw Lincoln's too
I don't think there was one thing I missed seeing except you

'Cause today I saw the first airplane that flew
Touched a moon rock and saw a senator at the zoo
Got lost seven times on Pennsylvania Avenue
But even here there's nothing as original as you
Even here there's nothing as original as you
