The Gourds - Omaha lyrics
[The Gourds - Omaha lyrics]
Guess I never really left at all
I'm turnin' all those roads I
Walked around the other way
I'm comin' 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
I got some schoolin' paid for by the law
And 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
Reckon I'll be movin' on
I'm leavin' even if I have to crawl
I've got some loose ends layin'
'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
