Omaha

Waylon Jennings

[Chorus]
Omaha you've been weighing heavy on my mind
I guess i never really left at all
I'm turning all those roads i've walked around the other way
And coming back to you,Omaha

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
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 was there ain't no easy way
To get ahead behind those county walls

[Verse 3]
So it's so long California,i reckon' i'll be moving on
I'm leaving even if i had to crawl
I got some loose ends around that i left undone
Waiting there for me in Omaha

[Chorus]
