Omaha, oh you've been weighin' heavy on my mind   Guess, I never really left it all   I'm turnin' all those roads, I walked around the other way   Coming back to you Omaha      Omaha, Nebraska was that good enough for me   I always thought I was the roamin' kind   With the pockets full of dreams in my worn shirt on my back   I left there looking for some things to find      Rode my thumb to San Francisco, I worked down by the bank   Got some schoolin' faithful by the law   The hardest thing I learned there was there ain't no easy way   To get ahead behind those county walls      So it's so long California reckon, I'll be a movin' on   I'm leavin' even if I had to crawl   I've got some losin's laying round   That I left them burn, waitin' there for me in Omaha      Omaha, you've been weighin' heavy on my mind   I guess I never really left it all   I'm turnin' all those roads I walked around the other way   I'm coming back to you Omaha
