Ohio

Dear Diana, I confess if though Columbia's a mess

I swear to God this one last job will get us through

I know this isn't what we'd planned but I'm doing what I can

A few more weeks and I'll be runnin' back to you

But now I'm stuck in Carolina, tryna find my way home

But the work is goin' long, I feel it heavy in my bones

And I'm just tryna get back to Ohio

Yeah, I'm just tryna get back to Ohio

My love, the stars here ain't as bright as a clear Ohio night

But I still find the ones I know you can see

I'm pullin' strength down from above but it's never quite enough

The more I work it seems the less I get to keep

But now I'm stuck in Carolina, tryna find my way home

But the money don't grow far enough how far I gotta go

And I'm just tryna get back to Ohio

Yeah, I'm just tryna get back to Ohio

I left you in the summer sun and hopes were high and dreams could run

But none of this was how it was meant to go

And I've been gone for far too long, the best intentions can run wrong

And even Carolina's starting to get cold

Darling, you told me from the start to never bet against my odds

And all this time I've never held a winning hand

There giving up but try and fight and then there's doin' what is right

I'm packing up and goin' back to be your man

'Cause I've been stuck in Carolina, tryna find my way home

Guess the rails can take me north back to my lover in the snow

And I'm just tryna get back to Ohio

Yeah, I'm just tryna get back to Ohio

Yeah, I'm just tryna get back to Ohio

Yeah, I'm just tryna get back to Ohio
