Ohio

Mommy's working late

And Daddy's out of state

I make black bike tire marks on the concrete

There ain't no time on Baker Street

Ohio

Same old lies

Still remind you

Of a place you used to know

In Ohio

A diamond in the sun

I watch her shining from my bedroom

I can almost hear her say

"The times were good

Till the time they went away"

Ohio

The same old signs

Flash and shine and then

Pale in an afterglow

In Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio

Press my luck

My feet got stuck

And I danced in an undertow

In Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio

Don't kill my Ohio
