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.
