Osage County


I grew up in Osage County
Near the Tulsa County line
Out west of town near the reservoir
Among the newly planted pines
I left home when I was younger
I went to satisfy a hunger in my mind
All I found was a city, cold and lonely
Now I've left my friends and family behind

Ooh, Osage County
Never thought you'd haunt me so
Ooh, Osage County
I know I couldn't stay, but it still hurts so much to have to go

My father was a ladykiller
He'd go out chasing women on the road
Mom would dream about a good life
She'd lay around the house and she'd get stoned

Ooh, Osage County
Never thought you'd haunt me so
Ooh, Osage County
I know I couldn't stay, but it still hurts so much to have to go

My whole future was decided
When I woke up to Like A Rolling Stone
I'm not sure if I've found freedom
But I know what it means to be alone

Ooh, Osage County
Never thought you'd haunt me so
Ooh, Osage County
I know I couldn't stay, but it still hurts so much to have to go
