Omaha

Omaha, you've been weighin' heavy on my mind

Guess I never really left at all

I'm turnin' all those roads I walked around the other way

Coming back to you, Omaha

Omaha, Nebraska wasn't good enough for me

I always thought I was the roamin' kind

With a pocket full of dreams and my one shirt on my back

I left there looking for some things to find

Rode my thumb to San Francisco, I worked down by the Bay

Got some schoolin' paid for by the law

The hardest thing I learned there was there ain't no easy way

To get ahead behind those county walls

So it's so long, California, I reckon I'll be movin' on

I'm leavin' even if I have to crawl

I've got some loose ends laying 'round that I left undone

Waitin' there for me in Omaha

Omaha, you've been weighin' heavy on my mind

I guess I never really left at all

I'm turnin' all those roads I walked around the other way

I'm coming back to you, Omaha
